There are "sub-lunar" and "antipodal" high tides.
The sub-lunar tide occurs when a place is, roughly speaking, directly "below" the Moon in the sky.
It's when the place is as close as possible to the Moon on any particular day.
The antipodal tide is the one that occurs right on the other side of the Earth,
as far away from the Moon as possible.
That's the basics, but there are a lot of complications with the tides, of course.

Where are Pisa and Boston in relation to the moon when they have high tides?
nowhere
Why are tides affected?
Tides are primarily affected by the gravitational force of the moon and the sun acting on Earth's oceans. As the moon orbits the Earth, it creates a gravitational pull that causes the water in the oceans to bulge towards it, creating high tides. When the moon is in a position where its gravitational force is perpendicular to that of the sun, it results in more extreme tides known as spring tides.
How does the moon affect the tides on the side of earth facing the moon?
There are high tides on the side of Earth facing the moon.
Why do you have high and low tides at the beach?
Due to the gravitational pull on the earth from the moon and the sun. The moon pulls the water from the earth towards it and so does the sun. Low tides are called Neap tides and are low because the pull from the sun and the moon cancel each other out (it would be much easier to explain using a diagram) High tides are spring tides and are high because the sun and the moon are alligned, creating a strong force.
What are all the tides names?
The two main types of tides are spring tides and neap tides. Spring tides occur during the full moon and new moon phases when the sun, moon, and Earth are aligned, creating higher high tides and lower low tides. Neap tides occur during the first and third quarter moon phases when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other, resulting in lower high tides and higher low tides.

Can you relate the phases of the moon to the occurrence of high and low tides?
Only spring and neap tides. The normal day to day tides are brought about by the position of the moon in relation to the earth as the earth rotates 'beneath' it
Why are there high and low tides every twelve hours?
High and low tides occur approximately every 12 hours due to the gravitational pull of the moon on the Earth's oceans. As the Earth rotates within this gravitational field, the water is pulled towards the moon, creating a high tide. The position of the moon in relation to the Earth causes two high tides and two low tides each day.
How are spring tides created and what factors contribute to their occurrence?
Spring tides are created when the gravitational forces of the sun and moon align, causing higher high tides and lower low tides. Factors that contribute to their occurrence include the positions of the sun, moon, and Earth in relation to each other, as well as the phase of the moon.
What are the effects of the moon on the earths tides?
what are the effects of tides The moon effects the tides making them either high or low tides.
Are Low tides caused by the sun and high tides by the moon?
no. all tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon.
Tide are especially high or low when the moon is full or new?
Yes, tides are especially high when the moon is full or new due to the combined gravitational pull of the moon and sun aligning. This alignment creates spring tides, where high tides are higher and low tides are lower than usual.
How does the moon affect the tides on the side of earth facing the moon?
There are high tides on the side of Earth facing the moon.
What moon phase has the highest tides?
The moon phase that has the highest tides is the full moon and the new moon, known as spring tides. During these phases, the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun align, resulting in more significant differences between high and low tides. This effect can cause higher high tides and lower low tides compared to other moon phases.
What phase of the moon when have a very high tides occur?
spring tides
