"Burial At Sea" refers to the practice of disposing of a deceased person's body in the ocean. This method is often chosen for individuals who had a strong connection to the sea or for those who served in the military. The process typically involves placing the body in a weighted casket or shroud and then lowering it into the water, following specific legal and environmental guidelines. This practice is regulated by laws that vary by country and region. In many cases, a burial at sea requires permits and adherence to health and safety standards. It is often conducted during a ceremonial service, allowing family and friends to pay their respects before the body is committed to the ocean.
