Diani Beach wreck dive with a simple shore approach and strong schooling fish around the hull.
About M.V. Alpha Funguo
M.V. Alpha Funguo is a purpose-sunk wreck off Diani Beach, where a shore-entry dive drops onto a trawler sitting in the deeper band of the coastal reef. The attraction is the structure itself: an artificial reef packed with schooling snappers, barracuda, batfish, jackfish and larger patrol fish around the hull. It suits divers who want a straightforward wreck profile with real fish life and enough depth to feel like a proper Kenyan signature dive.
