spring tide is when the moon and the sun are aligned and the force of gravity pulls the tides outward on the sides and thinner on top which makes high tides higher and low tides higher while neap tides are when the moon is at a 90 degree angle with the earth and sun and pull more to were low tides are lower and high tides are lower.
