The largest tides occur the alignment of the Sun, Earth and Moon system coincide at their perigee and perihelion. Thus all the gravitational masses pull in one direction and cause very high tides. Rarely, Mars may add to the picture.

These tides will be the highest recorded and the lowest recorded, hence the range is greatest. Often called King Tides.
