People tend to think a tide is the moon pulling the water. Or they think that the tides move in and out.
They are wrong.
A tide is a vertical displacement of water. The surface level of the sea moves up and down. As most beaches are gently sloped the water looks like it is moving in, but no, its rising up and down.
Sure the moon and the sun's gravitational pull explains the cause, but that is just the cause, and not what it is.
