Actually, there are TWO high tides and TWO low tides, on almost every day.

There are two high tides and two low tides every day.
High tides, low tides, spring tides (which are maximum high tides) and neap tides (which are the lowest of low tides).
A neap tide is a tide with the least difference between consecutive and low and high tides. A spring tides are combined forces which produce a tide with a greatest difference between consecutive low and high tides. They occur because the moons gravitational pull is pulling it.
Spring and neap tides occur approximately 14 days apart. Spring tides happen when the sun, moon, and earth are aligned, creating higher high tides and lower low tides. Neap tides occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in less variation between high and low tides.

Low tides
They consider high and low tides in their journey because if it is high tide the water level will be high but if it is low tides the water level is low.
Most coastal areas experience two low tides in a span of two days and two nights. This is due to the cyclical nature of the tides, which typically have two high tides and two low tides each day.
Tides that are not very high and not very low are called neap tides.
High tides. The others are called low tides.
