Ashes At Sea Key Largo, FL

Why Families Choose an Ashes at Sea Ceremony

 

Many people feel a deep connection to the ocean. Whether your loved one enjoyed boating, fishing, diving, or simply found peace on the water, scattering ashes at sea can be a fitting and memorable tribute.

Unlike a traditional memorial service, a private charter allows family and friends to gather in a quiet setting where they can celebrate a life well lived without distractions.

Your ceremony can be personalized with:

  • Family reflections and stories
  •  Religious or non-denominational readings
  •  Music selected by the family
  • Moments of silence
  • Flower petals or biodegradable wreaths
  • Military or veterans' honors when appropriate
  • Time to simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings
Every memorial is conducted according to your family's wishes, creating a meaningful experience that is both respectful and memorable.

Why Choose Key Largo?

 

Known as the Gateway to the Florida Keys, Key Largo is famous for its crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and relaxed island atmosphere. Families appreciate the area's accessibility as well as its stunning marine environment.

The waters surrounding Key Largo provide a serene backdrop for an ash scattering ceremony, offering expansive ocean views and a sense of tranquility that many families find comforting.

Depending on the season, you may encounter:

  • Dolphins swimming alongside the boat 
  • Sea turtles 
  • Pelicans and other coastal birds 
  • Calm blue waters stretching to the horizon 
  • Spectacular Florida sunsets 

The natural beauty of Key Largo creates an unforgettable setting for honoring a loved one's memory.

A Ceremony Designed Around Your Family

 

No two memorial services are alike.

Our private Ashes at Sea charters allow you to create a ceremony that reflects your family's traditions, beliefs, and personal preferences.

Many families choose to include:

  • Opening remarks by a family member 
  • Religious prayers 
  • Poems or favorite passages 
  • Playing meaningful music 
  • Sharing memories 
  • A final farewell before scattering ashes 
  • Floating flowers or biodegradable memorial wreaths 

Our captain remains respectfully available while allowing your family the privacy needed during the ceremony.

 

EPA-Compliant Ash Scattering

TH Charters conducts all Ashes at Sea ceremonies in accordance with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations governing the scattering of cremated remains at sea.

Before Your Charter
We'll discuss:

  • Preferred ceremony date
