I too have stood on top of the reactor at Sizewell perfectly happily.
The visitor centre was closed when we visited a few years ago, I imagine
permanently in these post "9/11" (*) days.

I've flown over the top of it at only a few feet above the top of the
exclusion zone since 9/11 and nobody took any obvious interest in me. If
I'd wanted to fly into it it would have taken me only a few seconds, they
couldn't have stopped me unless there really was a seriously
trigger-happy anti-aircraft missile operator watching me the whole time.

And it probably wouldn't have done any serious damage if you had.

Not to the reactor, no, not even a scratch, but you could probably break and
burn enough ancillary stuff to shut it down for a few months if you knew
what you were doing.
