If you have a valid visa issued by the Home Office, United Kingdom Border Agency (UKBA), Bailiwick of Jersey or Bailiwick of Guernsey then you will be able to visit the Isle of Man.
However:
While visiting the Isle of Man you will not be able to work or study and there is no recourse to public finds.
