About Us
Oceans of Love is an eco-friendly service that peacefully lays ashes at sea. We are a family-owned and operated business in Southern California.
We work professionally and compassionately with our partners and families across the United States to ensure each laying of ashes is done lovingly and safely for the environment. Oceans of Love has helped us heal and commemorate loved ones we have lost and our mission is to do the same for you.
All of our services are carried out personally on our sailing vessel RASA or motor vessel APERITIVO. We are committed to making the final tribute to your loved one a beautiful and respectful experience as if they were our own.
