San Pedro Passenger Boat (max. 24 guests)

Enjoy a service surrounded by your family friends aboard this vessel. With a central seating area family can be surrounded by each other as they make their way out to the burial at sea ash scattering location. Once there the crew will assist the family in scattering the ashes. On the return the family have closure through sharing stories or enjoying the beauty of the sea.

The service allows for the scattering of one set of human remains. For an additional scattering there is a fee of $155.

To be able to perform the service we will require an LA County Disposition of Human Remains Permit. You can get this from the crematory or from the LA Vital Records Office.

Client reviews

We chartered a yacht to Catalina through Los Angeles Yacht Charter for a burial at sea for my mother.

Whether you are looking for a burial at sea or something more fun, I can’t recommend this group highly enough.

Yesterday I had my father’s memorial service on one of their yachts.

They made the whole process very easy and stress-free. The crew were nice and respectful to all of my guests. I would use them again.

It was so nice to go out to the ocean with family members in a private boat. The whole process was very smooth and awesome. I’d recommend to anyone who is looking for a ash spreading service at the ocean!

Our trip to scatter ashes of my two sisters was beyond our expectations. Our Captain, Gary, was on time, courteous, respectful and friendly. His partner, Terri was delightful! She seemed to anticipate our every need. I would highly recommend this charter if looking for a lovely, dignified burial at sea.

How many times do we lose a mom? How much experience did I have in doing what she asked me to do? Scatter her ashes into the sea. Grieving her loss and running around not knowing what to do, I finally put my trust in Los Angeles Yacht Charter to take us to where we needed to go and do what we needed to do. So glad that I did. From the minute I emailed them, they've been very responsive, supportive and patient with me until the end. Mom's ceremony went beautifully. A very respectful goodbye to our beloved mom. The captain and crew were very kind, supportive and courteous, understanding fully that they're taking care of grieving people. I'm eternally thankful to this company and would recommend it to anybody who's looking for a professional team to handle their events. P.S. releasing doves was a big hit with the guests, and they looked great in the video we made later.
