Burial at Sea in Georgia
Georgia’s hundred-mile coast — Savannah’s grand old port, the marshes of Glynn, and the wild beaches of the Golden Isles — is the Lowcountry at its most poetic. The Atlantic beyond the barrier islands is warm and welcoming.
Sea Services has arranged burials at sea and ash scatterings in Georgia since 1991. Every service is performed by U.S. Coast Guard–licensed captains in full compliance with EPA regulations, a minimum of three nautical miles from shore, aboard Coast Guard–approved vessels.
Our Georgia departure points:
Families who wish to be aboard can plan a private memorial charter from any of these ports — most last 1.5 to 2 hours dock to dock. If your family cannot attend, our Captain’s Service performs a dignified, fully documented unattended scattering, available year-round.
