Scattering Ashes Vancouver, B.C.
Scattering Ashes Vancouver is a family operated service based in Crescent Beach, a suburb of Vancouver, BC. Our caring staff can help plan your loved one’s ash scattering service off the coast of BC. We offer our vessels and captains for your service and can assist you in scattering your loved one’s ashes off the coast of Crescent Beach. If you have another location that you would prefer, we are able to accommodate once our office has approved your request. This is a truly unique Vancouver memorial service to celebrate the life and memories of your loved one.
Our vessels seat 12 passengers each and are Transport Canada safety certified as are our Captains and crew. We have a heated cabin on Spartan 1 which can seat 4 with the remaining 8 on the outer deck or 12 on the deck (photo in about us). Spartan 2 seats 12 on the deck. Vessels have a toilet (head) and are equipped for music (bluetooth connectivity), should you wish. We provide every passenger with a life jacket (worn) or an equivalent floater jacket or full one piece floater suit depending on weather and preference (staff discretion). After, we provide you with a certificate (pdf) recognizing the day that includes a GPS position of the location of the service. Please email our office at the conclusion with the name for the certificate. Our caring staff take the necessary time to ensure this day is memorable and meaningful for all.
The intent of the trip is to scatter ashes at sea near Vancouver. We typically allow an hour for the booking (for our standard service) and the on water portion is a segment of that time. We return to port following the scattering. Please keep your service within our time specifications as we sometimes have multiple trips including our other services. If you wish to book more time please get the approval from our office. Ash is the only thing that may be placed in the ocean. A conservative customary offering of flower petals may be placed with the ash, however, environmental protection and regulations limit anything more. Staff are on hand and can guide you.
We would love to hear from you and help you plan your loved one’s memorial service. We are flexible and ready to answer any questions you have about spreading ashes in BC. Please email us at whiterockseatours@gmail.com for more information.
