The Sun and the Moon.
The greatest high tides are Spring tides where the Earth, Moon, and Sun are in a line. They are also the lowest low tides. The least high tides and low tides are called neap tides when the sun, moon and earth form a right angle
Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the sun and the moon upon the oceans of the earth. The sun has the greatest pull. The tides are greatest during a new moon when the sun and the moon are pulling from the same direction. The side of the earth that faces the sun usually has the high tide, while the side away from the sun has the low tide.
The gravity of the moon and sun causes the earth's tides. The greatest tides are called 'spring' tides which occur when the earth, moon and sun are aligned. The moon has the greatest effect on our tides because of its proximity.
