About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Mombasa is an island city off the Kenya coast and Mombasa British Memorial will be found in Mombasa (Mbaraki) Cemetery, a large civil cemetery which contains war graves plots as well as scattered war graves. The cemetery is located on the southern side of Mombasa island, on Mbaraki Road. Entering Mombasa via the vehicle ferry at the end of Nyerere Avenue, take the second left turn into Mbaraki Road. The road continues straight for a distance before bending round to the right. The large civil cemetery is on the right hand side of the road on the inside of the curve. The Cemetery fronts directly onto the road, from which the Cross of Sacrifice by the Second World War graves plot can easily be seen. The Memorial takes the form of an inscription on the base of the Cross of Sacrifice in the Cemetery.

The memorial records the names of 80 officers and men of British, South African, West African and East African units and the West India Regiment, all of whom died and were buried at sea off the East African coast.
