Tides are a result of "the gravitational attraction of the Sun and Moon".


An especially high tide (Spring tide) happens when the sun and moon are in line and both pull in a similar way.  


Tides may appear to be straightforward at first glance, yet the intricate details of tides jumbled extraordinary logical masterminds for a considerable length of time they even driven Galileo astray into a bunk theory.  


Today individuals realize that the gravitational pulls between the earth, moon and sun manage the tides. The moon, however, impacts tides the most.  


The moon's gravitational pull on the earth is solid enough to pull the seas into bulge. On the off chance that no different powers were impacting everything, shores would encounter one high tide a day as the earth pivoted on its hub and coasts kept running into the seas' bulge confronting the moon.
