mostly the moon but the wind determines the direction it flows
Tides on earth are mainly caused by the moon's gravity and earth's rotation.
The Earth rotating and its tilt of the axis forms the oceans' tides and currents.

high tide and low tide Just as Earth's gravity attracts the moon, the moon's gravity affects Earth. Being much smaller, its gravity is weaker and just pulls on the ocean. Tides change throughout the day due to the Sun and Moon's changing positions relative to Earth. Because the Sun also affects tides, the tides are highest during noon and midnight. In between, they just rise and fall slowly. The moon's gravity pulls the ocean and causes tides.

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.
The Moon's Gravity Causes the waves to form.
The Moon's gravity pulls ocean water toward it while the Earth revolves.

The moons gravitational pull is what causes tides.
Ocean tides will continue as long as the earth, moon and sun exists.
