High tide and low tide are not the same; they are opposite phases of the tidal cycle. High tide occurs when the water level reaches its maximum due to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun, while low tide occurs when the water level recedes to its minimum. The alternating rise and fall of sea levels is caused by the rotation of the Earth and the positions of these celestial bodies. Thus, while they are interconnected, they represent different states of the tidal cycle.

Which tide comes first The high tide or the low tide?
High tide comes before low tide. The tidal cycle starts with high tide, then transitions to low tide, and then returns to high tide before repeating the cycle.
What is a mixed semidiurnal tide?

When boating on coastal waters it is important to be aware of the tide if high tide is at noon when can you expect the next low tide?
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.
If high tide is at noon when is low tide?
The timing of low tide relative to high tide varies depending on the location and the lunar cycle. Generally, there are two high tides and two low tides each day, with low tide occurring approximately six hours after high tide. Therefore, if high tide is at noon, low tide would typically be around 6 PM. However, this can vary, so it's best to consult a local tide chart for precise times.
