Last updated 8 October 2026

Whitley Bay Crematorium fees

Whitley Bay Crematorium is run by North Tyneside Council, which also runs Tynemouth Crematorium. Both use the same council fee table, so the prices below apply at either site. A standard attended service costs £951 on a weekday and £1,161 on a Saturday. Families who do not need a full service can save over £400 with a direct (unattended) cremation at £537.90, or book a shorter 20-minute service at £612.90 if a brief attended goodbye is enough.
