A full body burial at sea is a great alternative to a ground burial for several reasons:

  • More cost-effective than land-based burial plots
  • More environmentally friendly
  • Use of only natural and biodegradable materials for the least environmental impact
  • The sea is a meaningful place for many: military, mariners, life-long boaters, and so on
  • Religious or cultural meaning. We serve all faiths and cultures
  • Simple matter of personal preference

Burials at sea have taken place for thousands of years and across many religions, faiths, and cultures from around the world.
