Tides may be semidiurnal (two high waters and two low waters each day), or diurnal (one tidal cycle per day). In most locations, tides are semidiurnal. Because of the diurnalcontribution, there is a difference in height (the daily inequality) between the two high waters on a given day. Some of the greatest differences between high and low tides re found in the Bay of Fundy (eastern Canada).
