About this site
MV Alpha Funguo is a purpose-sunk wreck off Diani in Kenya, now working as an artificial reef. It is an advanced wreck dive, and the vessel rests upright with a slight list on the seabed at approximately 22 to 29 metres, with the top of the wreck at approximately 22 metres.
Access is by a mooring line, and it is not normally a drift dive. Fish gather around the deck, cargo holds and superstructure, while crevices and sheltered areas provide habitat for smaller reef species. The deck and superstructure can be toured from the outside.
