the different tides are high tide, low tide, neaptide, and spring tide. high tide is when the moon is pulling the water into the land on on side of the earth, but on the closest, it is low tide, because it is also pulling it away from land. neap tide is when every thing is eutral, and the same, balanced. the spring tide it when its unnaturally high, or just unnaturally low...... just higher, or lower than high or low tides.

The highest tides are called neap tides and they happen when the sun and the moon line up. This is because the moons and the suns gravitional pull acts on the tides.

They're called the 'spring' and 'neap' tides - when the combined gravity of the sun and moon together create higher than normal tides.
