The 'magicseaweed' platform uses the Magicseaweed Forecast API as a source for surf forecasting data for the surf spots of your choice.

You need an API key which is free but requires registration. Magicseaweed is limiting users of the API to 1 spot for the free plan.

To add Magicseaweed forecasts to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: magicseaweed
    api_key: YOUR_API_KEY
    spot_id: 1092
