Simon is spiritual and a Christ figure. His death is an allusion to Jesus being sacrificed. It also shows how much Simon was connected to the spiritual world, and that he was meant to be a sacrifice to nature. The sea, a part of nature, is taking his body because he was meant to be a part of nature. Acting as a halo, "the strange attendant creatures, with their fiery eyes and trailing vapors, busied themselves round his head." (Golding 154)
