Spring tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth all lie in a line, more or less... in other words, at New Moon and Full Moon. This is because at these times the tidal forces on Earth from the Sun and Moon reinforce each other.

Higher-than-average "spring" tides occur at the new moon and full moon phases. Lower-than-average "neap" tides happen at the quarter-moon phases.
