Hi, I’m Captain John, founder and owner of Funeral At Sea. We provide ash scatterings in Florida, in the areas around Tampa, Clearwater, St. Petersburg, Key Largo, and Sanibel Island Lighthouse. We have 3 boats in the Tampa area that can hold 1-85 passengers. Our boats in the Florida Keys and Sanibel lighthouse can hold 40 and 20 passengers, respectively.

If you have any questions about how a Funeral at Sea works, go to our FAQ page. If you are interested in having a biodegradable urn or wreath as part of a funeral at sea, go to our Biodegradable Urns page. And our Pricing page will tell you what it will cost.

Funeral At Sea offers a dignified and simple alternative to the conventional funeral. Funeral at sea is a time honored tradition. It is less costly than a land funeral, and in many ways is much more refined.

Our services usually last 1 to 1 ½ hours depending on how long your family wants to stay out. We provide free bottled water. You are welcome to bring your own beverages such as champagne, beer and wine.

We also provide a very nice Certificate of Burial at Sea, which provides the exact coordinates. It you ever want to go back to the original burial place we can get to within five feet of it.

We can arrange for services in any navigable body of water in the world, local laws and customs permitting, as we have connections with many captains.

Many families use a biodegradable urn for their ash scatterings. The best urns will float for a brief period, then sink and dissolve. We have our own urns made specifically for us by a craftswoman in Clearwater, Florida. We can also provide mostly any urn on the market get you one at a discount price. See our Biodegradable Urns page for a video.

We can handle a Funeral at Sea 365 days a year at any of our locations.  Our trips leave both in the morning and the afternoon.  If you have questions, or simply want to schedule a day to have a Funeral at Sea, go to Contact us, or call 813-855-2093.
