Ash scattering at sea in Kona on the big island of Hawaii is available during any of our private charters at no additional cost.
Some of our guests prefer to scatter their loved ones ashes at sea in the evening during a private sunset sail. Others prefer to do it in the morning before or after snorkeling and sailing. There are many options and we are happy and honored to accommodate you and your loved ones wishes.
Please use the comment field on the booking form to let us know at the time of booking if you plan on an ash scattering at sea during your charter.
We recommend bringing loose flowers to place in the water before and after the ash scattering. You may also wish to bring traditional Hawaii Lei, however we try to avoid putting the string in the ocean. We recommend cutting the string and just placing the flowers in the ocean.
Some guests place a biodegradable urn in the ocean and watch it slowly sink. Many different sizes and shapes are available from various online venders including turtles and dolphins.
Others release their loved ones ashes directly into the ocean where it creates a beautiful cloud under water that reflects the sunlight. The addition of flowers creates a very memorable image.
You are welcome to bring your own music selections which you can play through our onboard Bluetooth stereo system. We also recommend having members of your group say a few words about the departed before scattering their ashes in the sea.
