Ash scattering charters

A respectful private charter for burial at sea in Honolulu.

Why families choose this charter

A private setting with the time and care this moment deserves.

This charter is handled differently from a celebration sail. The focus is on privacy, respect, and creating space for remembrance without pressure or extra noise. Captain Donovan has officiated many burials at sea and approaches this sail with great care so families can return to the location in the future.
