Scattering the ashes of loved one within sight of lighthouses or other distinct coastal landmarks is a great way to give families and friends a location to visit with their loved ones from shore.
Lighthouse locations offer scenic views and in most cases make fantastic picnic areas. It is also an affordable cost cruise since it typically takes no more than 15 minutes to travel out to a suitable spot within sight of the land mark of choice. New England Burials at Sea typically supplies ash scattering certificates stating the latitude, longitude and date of the ceremony and will also include the distance and direction. For example: “5 miles North Northeast of Scituate Lighthouse in Scituate, Massachusetts.”
The distance and direction is also a nice touch to add to published obituaries or notices sent to friends and relatives who could not attend services, but would like to pay their respects at a later time.

I want to make arrangements for my brother, Woody, to have his ashes buried at sea. He has been cremated and I have purchased a biodegradable urn. I will need information on any documentation that I have to supply. My husband and I Live in Connecticut, my brother lived in Maryland for 55 years and loved Ocean City. Please let me know if the date is okay and what the cost of this service will be. My husband and I would like to accompany Woody and release the urn onto the water.
