A private farewell at sea
A sea scattering returns your beloved pet’s ashes to nature in a serene, personal way. We charter a boat solely for your family, so the occasion is unhurried and entirely yours — no sharing the moment with strangers. Our advisors accompany you throughout, handling the arrangements so you can simply be present and say goodbye.
An optional religious ritual
If you wish, we arrange for the appropriate religious leader to conduct a Buddhist, Taoist, Christian or Catholic ritual on board during the scattering. The rite is carried out with care and reverence, in keeping with your family’s faith.
What to expect on the day
We meet you at the jetty and sail out to the designated waters. When you are ready, the ashes are scattered together with flowers, and you are given the time and space for a few words or a quiet moment. The boat then returns gently to shore. The whole experience is calm, dignified and led at your pace.
Bringing the farewell together
A sea scattering can follow a private cremation and be paired with a celebrant or religious ceremony for a complete farewell. Speak with our advisors and we will help you plan each part around your family.
Why families choose a sea scattering
For some, a sea scattering reflects a love of the outdoors, the freedom of open water, or simply a wish to let go in a way that feels natural and unconfined. There is no niche to visit, but many families find comfort in returning to the coast on anniversaries, watching the same horizon their pet was released into. It can stand on its own or complete a fuller farewell, and because the boat is yours alone, the moment unfolds entirely on your terms — quiet, personal and unhurried.
We take care of the details
Chartering the boat, timing the tides, coordinating any religious leader, preparing the flowers — we handle the logistics so nothing distracts you from the farewell. Just tell us what you have in mind, and your advisor will arrange the rest.
