Tides change daily but are usually six hours apart.

Two high tides and two low tides altogether four

The earth's rotation and the proximity of the moon (and the sun to a lesser degree) cause high and low tides each day.

Easy... the moon gravity pulls water in its direction making high and low tides.

The moon and earths gravitational pull (gravity)
High tides, low tides, spring tides (which are maximum high tides) and neap tides (which are the lowest of low tides).
This occurs because the Earth is tilted on an axis.
It takes about 24 hours and 50 minutes for tides to complete a cycle. The highest tides are 12 hours and 25 minute apart. The low tides will come at 6 hours and 12 minutes, separating the the high tides.
