Yes. The earth's tides vary slightly with the seasons. The earth is at a greater distance from the sun in the summer than in the winter. The sun's gravity provides one cause of the earth's tides. The closer the earth is to the sun, the higher the tides will be. However, the variations in the moon's orbit can also have quite an effect so the correlation is not perfect. Only occasionally are the sun and moon both closest at the same time. When that happens, a spring tide results. If you live right next the water and one is predicted, perhaps you should consider going to a motel.

What is the importance of knowing the seasons in our place?
Light of day does not effect earths high and low tides, the moon does. The Moon is in the gravitational pull of earths orbit. When the earth turns it pulls the moon slowly. But the moon does get ahead of the earth at some points causing high tide, but when the moon lags behind the earths pull it is low tide.

Tides yes, seasons no. The Earths tilt causes the seasons as we orbit the sun.
Is the size of all high tides the same?
Tides are the rise and fall of the sea level caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the Moon and the Sun and the rotation of the Earth. The heights of tides vary from seasons to seasons. So no, they are not all the same.
What is the effect of rotation of earth?
The earths rotation causes day and night, wind, tides and ocean currents and its also responsible for the different seasons.

tides
What effect have tides had on the length of a day?
The tides are slowing the earths rotation and making the day longer.
