nan wan left side - i got some fun waves on the left side of nan wan beach. it was mostly sand with a reef and left-hand peeling wave that was chest-high & barreling up onto the beach. i had a lot of fun getting pits on my bodyboard. i think this spot is fickle though. it must've been high tide because earlier that day, it was almost flat.

- What is the best time to go here during the summer time? Cause I went here two summers ago and found it very disappointing. It was right before a typhoon and the waves were real small and too close to the shore.
