Because one of the greatest influences on the tides ... the moon ... is revolving

around the Earth. So, for any direction you choose, the moon appears in that

direction at a different time each day, and the angle between the sun and moon

is different by roughly 13 degrees each day.

The moon rises and sets 30 minutes later each day. Thus this lag time causes the high and low tide tides to also vary by this much each day.

When the moon is going in its orbit, because it is an elipse, it will be closer to the Earth at different times. Therefore, the Moon's gravity will be stronger, or weaker everyday, which makes it take more or less time between the tides.

The moon controls the tides. The moon orbits the earth, so it is not possible for it to cause the same tidal effects at a given location at the same time each day.

Tides are dependent on the moon. There are 24 time zones on Earth. The tides will differ depending on the position of the moon in each time zone.
