[Marine Day Limited] An Option to 'Return to the Sea'. 'Marine Scattering Experience Cruise' to Experience the Reality of Marine Scattering Held in Tokyo Bay

Sea Ceremony, a provider of marine scattering services (operated by SPICE SERVE Inc., President Kohei Yamada, hereinafter Sea Ceremony), will hold its first-ever 'Marine Scattering Experience Cruise' on July 20, 2026 (Monday, holiday), Marine Day. This event will allow participants to experience the actual scattering procedure. While marine scattering is gaining popularity in recent years, many express concerns such as 'Are there any legal issues?' and 'How is it done?'. This event provides an opportunity to reconsider ways of memorialization by actually setting sail and experiencing rituals like offering flowers and silent prayer.

3 Features of Sea Ceremony's 'Marine Scattering Experience Cruise'

1. Experience a 'Simulated Ceremony' Just Like the Real Thing At the actual scattering point, participants will return salt to the sea in place of cremated remains and experience a series of ceremonies including water offering, flower offering, and silent prayer. You can personally feel the grandeur and peace of the sea.

2. 'Onboard End-of-Life Planning Seminar' by Expert Concierge During the cruise, we will clearly explain the process of 'pulverizing' remains into powder, guidelines for scattering areas, and the latest end-of-life planning trends. Individual consultations will also be provided by certified professionals such as Grade 1 Funeral Directors and End-of-Life Planning Counselors.

3. 'Public Media & End-of-Life Business Invitation Slot' Established To widely communicate the current situation of the rapidly increasing marine scattering to society, members of the press and end-of-life business operators are invited free of charge. On the day, opportunities for demonstration filming and interviews with participants will be available.
