BURIAL AT SEA…

Burial at Sea has been a time honored tradition for mariners and those with a fondness of the ocean for thousands of years.  For many, the oceans endless rhythm,  grandeur, and panoramic horizons characterize the continuance of life and eternity. 

It can be a symbolic and meaningful expression to lay rest our loved ones into the embrace of an awe-inspiring ocean. 

Today we consider burial at sea to be comprised  primarily of cremation scattering.  Maritime Burials, provides both ash scattering services as well as time honored  body (non-cremated) burial at sea. 

Every aspect of our services from our staff, uniforms and specialized equipment are provided with the greatest detail of respect and reverence.

CONSIDER BURIAL AT SEA...

• When a family plot is not an option because of location or other logistics; Burial at Sea can offer your family a new tradition that expresses individuality.

• When the need arises, close family members can be interred at the same coordinates allowing the same closure and significance of proximity traditional burial conveys.

• Immediately or long after interment, family members can visit the exact location for remembrance or ceremonial purposes.

• Burial at Sea conserves natural resources and can be cost-effective when compared to traditional burial.

• For many, Burial at Sea symbolizes a return to the very place which sustains life on our planet... a symbolic cycle of completion and harmony.

• Burial at Sea can be provided in conjunction with a traditional funeral service.
