Whitley Bay Crematorium fees
Whitley Bay Crematorium is one of three crematoria serving North Tyneside, alongside Tynemouth and West Road – all three share the same operator price list, so it’s worth checking you’ve got the right one before you book. A standard attended service costs £985. Families who don’t need a full service can save over £400 with a direct (unattended) cremation at £571.90, or book a shorter 20-minute reduced service at £646.90 if a brief attended goodbye is enough.

About this crematorium
Whitley Bay Crematorium is operated by North Tyneside Council. It opened in 1960 and shares its fee structure with the council’s other two crematoria, Tynemouth and West Road – Whitley Bay and Tynemouth charge identical rates, while West Road (the newer of the three) is priced somewhat higher.
