Meet your host
Man is the kind of host who really knows his stuff—he’s been surfing for over 15 years and once competed in Thailand’s National Surf League. Before launching Better Surf Thailand, he ran a hostel in Khao Lak, where he first spotted the quiet magic of Memories Beach during the off-season. That spark led him to create a surf school that’s now part of a bigger community hub. Man’s not just teaching people to ride waves—he’s helping local kids get into surfing, training future instructors, and building a space that feels natural and welcoming. With sustainable design and a strong local team, he’s quietly helped turn Khao Lak into a true surf town.
