because the earth has it's own rotation to its axis and it is different to the rotation of the moon to it's axis which are not parallel to the axis of the earth, and we may include also the revolution of the earth towards the sun which aren't the same each day or year.... Baday, Albert A.
On average, high tides are separated by about 12 hours and 24 minutes. The 12 hours is because of earth's rotation, and the 24 minutes is compensation for the movement of the moon. So low tides would be about half way through those 12 hour 24 minute periods.
about morning to day
(706 in a leap year)One tidal cycle is 12 hours and 26 minutes long (roughly), experiencing one high and one low tide.8760hrs in a year divided by 12.433 hrs = 704Joy.http://geography.about.com/od/physicalgeography/a/tides.htm

The time for high tide and low tide depends on the date of the tide, and the place where you are measuring high and low tide. There isn't a fixed number, unfortunately.

About 12 hours and 25 minutes.
High tide and low tide both usually occur twice in 24 hours.
The tidal period (length of time between successive high or low tides) is about 12 hours and 25.2 minutes, exactly half a tidal lunar day. Thus the period between the high tide and the low tide is 6 hours and 12.6 minutes. This means that if it was high tide at noon, the low tide will be at 12.6 minutes past 6 in the evening of the same day.
High tides occur twice each day. There is about 12 hours between each high tide as they are based on the lunar day and caused by the gravitational pull of the moon.
The duration of High Tide at Noon is 1.82 hours.
The tidal period (length of time between successive high or low tides) is about 12 hours and 25.2 minutes, exactly half a tidal lunar day. Thus the period between the high tide and the low tide is 6 hours and 12.6 minutes.

If high tide is at noon - low tide will occur six hours later - at 6pm.
