A dear friend passed on this week and had some of her ashes scattered.
Made me wonder when I go, is there laws against scattering ashes at

A traditional send-off for a departed surfer includes a 'paddle-out' to the
selected surf break and then simply scatter the ashes. Prolly not even 100
yards off-shore..
