Ko Man Wichai is a small and narrow island just eight kilometers southwest of Ko Larn. A nice wall in the south and a rocky formation resembling a man's fingers are the two most popular dive sites around the shores of Koh Man Wichai. Snorkelling can be done all around Wichai's shallow coral reefs.

The wall sits at Ko Man Wichai's most southern point where the ocean is increasing in depth and currents are catching up. It is a seven meter high coral wall sitting in depths between 10 and 25 meters deep. Many divers drift along the wall accompanying several groups of barracuda's while returning to the boat across a great hard coral reef. The Fingers are named because these coral heads resemble the five fingers of a human's hand. All fingers, none which looks like a thumb, are pointing outwards to the ocean. This small island is considered as one of the better dive area's near Pattaya.
