We want to earn your trust!
Perhaps the best way we can help you deal with the loss you’re experiencing is to help you take action to honor the life of your loved one.
Burial at sea is an ancient tradition that honors the dead and brings closure by creating a loving connection with the Earth’s most majestic resource – the sea! I believe you’ll find comfort knowing your loved one’s final resting place is within the ocean’s embrace.
When you’re ready, we will help you memorialize a life lived well.
Nature's Passage performs sea burials and memorial services at sea. We are a fully licensed and insured marine company that goes to sea specifically to spread cremated remains and submerge casketed bodies. Ours is a rigorous and often dangerous sea service that requires not only master mariner skills but also an awareness of the seriousness and sensitivity of our work. We are professionals who perform our duties with a serine sense of service and compassion. We are the only commercial company in America to offer traditional burial at sea with 'full military honors' for America's veterans.
“I really don’t know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea…I think it’s because we all came from the sea… and it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean. And therefore we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, and in our tears. We are tied to the ocean, and when we go back to the sea—we are going back to whence we came.”
- John F. Kennedy
Thinking logically, one has to understand why the price of dying in America is so expensive and continuing to sky rocket! Cemetery plots are becoming more and more expensive. Why? Because America is running out of cemetery space. Burials at sea are a natural option for interment because it is a logical solution to the physics of diminishing resources of real property. The average price of a casket - not to mention a funeral - costs almost as much as my first house! Today, the average American funeral costs about $15,000. Burial at sea is about up to 70% less expensive than conventional burials! This makes sound financial sense to those who find the cost of dying prohibitive.
We provide sea burial services for America's families who share passions for the sea, sense the spiritual freedom associated with a burial at sea and relate to the fiscal and environmental issues inherent with this form of interment.

"To fear death is nothing other than to think oneself wise when one is not. For it is to think one knows what one does not know. No one knows whether death may not even turn out to be the greatest blessings of human beings. And yet people fear it as if they knew for certain it is the greatest evil."
~ Socrates
