Final Farewell at Sea
A burial or scattering at sea offers a peaceful, natural setting and a private, personal experience that many families find deeply meaningful. Here's why so many choose the ocean for their final farewell.
Peaceful and Natural Setting
Many families find that parting ways on the open ocean is a peaceful, calming place that helps them heal. The waves, horizon, and sky give a feeling of freedom hard to obtain on land.
Private and Personal
A sea burial is private and may be changed to fit your needs, unlike a crowded cemetery. You might commemorate your loved one by praying, singing, or simply reflecting.
Eco-Friendly Option
With biodegradable urns, scattering ashes at sea is a good decision for the environment — a return to nature in the most kind and respectful way.
Flexible and Accessible Year-Round
Florida's weather is moderate all year round, so you can pick a date that fits your family. No waiting for the right time of year or planning years in advance.
