Scatter your loved ones ashes in the florida keys
The Florida Keys, a captivating 125-mile chain of coral islands, capture America's adventurous spirit through their turquoise waters and sun-drenched coastlines. For centuries, they've inspired cherished memories—from family vacations in the waves to honeymoons, weddings, and enduring friendships along the shores. Many choose to return their ashes to these pristine waters, merging their legacy with the ocean's flow via eco-friendly services.
Central to this paradise is Islamorada, the "Village of Islands," with a history deeply tied to its stunning coastline and marine vitality. Sighted by Spanish explorers in 1513, it derives from "Isla Morada" (Purple Isle), evoking purple sunsets, seashells, and waters mirroring bougainvillea. Native tribes like the Calusa and Tequesta settled here 2,000–3,000 years ago, thriving on coastal fishing and navigation. European sailors navigated its fringing coral reefs—the U.S.'s only living barrier reef—protecting shores teeming with life. In the 1900s, William Krome platted the land in 1907 amid Henry Flagler's Overseas Railway boom, linking islands until the 1935 hurricane. Today, Islamorada's mangroves, bonefishing flats (as the "Sportfishing Capital"), and Gulf Stream depths make it perfect for ocean ash scatterings.
Relax and enjoy this special day
With our family attended burial at sea service, the entire ship is reserved for your group only. Your family and friends will depart from our dock in Islamorada and cruise 3 miles offshore. The vessel glides through the water at about 10 miles per hour and often encounters dolphins and other marine wildlife. Along the way you’ll see the beauty of the Florida Keys as you celebrate your loved ones life. Once your vessel reaches the destination, the Captain will note the ship's coordinates and commit the ashes to the sea.
