Burial at Sea Ventura

I used Los Angeles Youct Charter to help spread my mothers ashes in the ocean per her wishes. The process to book was fairly quick. They provided multiple options for group sizes and allowed me to upgrade when we needed more space. Once the boat was arriving, the caption called me to make sure I didn't have any questions. On the vessel, the deck hand was very respecful and helped guide us on when to have people speak and when it was time to prepare the ashes and then lower them. She offered to help at any stage or we could take charge. Very flexable. The boat was large enough and steady enough to walk around. Easy to find a quiet space to morn or be close to loved ones during this difficult time. I am very greatful for their communication, kindness and attention to the situation. I will note, they did bring their children with them. The children were very respectful, stayed out of the main area of the mornors and were not a distrubance in any way.

My sister-n-law requested a burial at sea which was new to our family. I contacted Los Angeles Yacht Charter and they were very informative and answered any questions I had immediately. On 6/29 we were greeted by Michael and Dan and they were great hosts. They made the journey to my sister-n-laws final resting spot off Malibu a breeze. Afterwards a group of dolphins followed us back which made it a beautiful moment.

I flew in from Utah to spread my moms ashes.The entire experience exceeded my expectations. From scheduling to the crew on the boat, the service was amazing. They assisted me in getting the needed California permit so it was in place when I arrived. I highly recommend this company.

The experience was absolutely amazing! The boat was nice and clean the captin was great! We came from Texas to spread my moms ashes back in her home town. Such a beautiful day it was and over 100 dolphins guided the boat back into land. Before my mom passed she told her grandkids to look for dolphins and to know she is always with them! We had over 100!!! It was the greatest send off and gave my family just comfort knowing that she was with us!

From booking through docking, the Los Angeles Yacht Charter handled everything to do with a burial at sea with compassion and thoughtfulness. Special kudos to Captain Michael and Dan for helping our family honor our adventurous little sister.
