Burials At Sea
For families seeking a meaningful way to honor their departed, we provide a respectful, customized experience here at Portsmouth Harbor Cruises. Our expert captains and crew ensure that each ceremony is handled with the utmost care and dignity. Departing from the heart of Portsmouth Harbor, we take you out onto the open Atlantic, where you can scatter a loved one’s cremated remains at sea.
Our services are designed to be as customizable as you’d like. You are welcome to bring flowers, poems, or readings, and our crew will support you in creating the perfect memorial experience. Whether you prefer a quiet, private ceremony or wish to include music, toasts or a ministerial service, we’re here to assist.
With a scattering at sea, we provide an Ocean Burial Certificate, complete with the geographic coordinates of the scattering site, ensuring that the location is remembered for years to come. We’ve seen time and time again that the ocean has a way of adding something truly special to these events. Whether it’s a pod of dolphins, a majestic whale, or even a graceful seabird, many families interpret these encounters as a beautiful "sign" from their loved ones, adding to the profound connection of nature and the sea.
Let us help you create an experience that will provide peace and closure for you and your family.
