Measuring Swell

Just looking for an accurate website that lads are using for forecasting swells and sea conditions around the country?

Just be aware that sites like this are not a substitute for local knowledge. Tide and wind direction will have a huge bearing to local conditions. Wide against tide can create horrible conditions for not a huge amount of swell or wind.
