Tide direction refers to the movement or flow of water caused by the changing tide.

The direction of the tide is influenced by various factors such as the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, wind patterns, and the shape of the coastline.

How many times a day does the current in the East River reverse its course?
The East River is a tidal strait, not a real river, which connects on both ends to the Atlantic Ocean. As such, East River's tidal currents change the direction usually four times a day, flowing north and then turning around and going south. There are days however when the directions will be changed only three times in a 24 hour period. The tide reversal times change with the position of the moon and the sun, so there are no fixed times for the direction changes.
