Some families choose to watch their burial at sea service from shore. The best places to view your burial at sea service is either from the visitor's overlook next to the Pt. Loma Lighthouse in Cabrillo National Monument or from the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery. Both are located at the south end of Catalina Avenue, which becomes Cabrillo Memorial Drive.

You can see the yacht easily from either location. You can also stay in touch with family members who might be on board via cell phone.
