SEA BURIALS AND SERVICES

Sea burials and the interment of ashes at sea are time-honoured maritime traditions that offer a unique and natural means of final rest. These practices have cultural, religious, and personal significance for many families. Sea burials involve the direct commitment of an unembalmed body to the ocean, typically in a biodegradable shroud or casket. Interment of ashes at sea, on the other hand, involves scattering a deceased individual’s cremated remains over open waters. Various regulations govern these practices, often requiring specific depths, distances from shore, and reporting to ensure environmental safety. Whether chosen for ancestral customs, personal connection to the sea, or environmental considerations, these aquatic rites offer a serene and symbolic return to nature.
