What are tides?
Tides are the alternating rise and fall of the saltwater with respect to the shoreline. Tides are influenced by the gravitational forces of the sun and the moon. Some additional factors that can influence the tides include the layout of the coastline, the topography of the seafloor, winds, shifts in ocean currents, local water depth, and the weather each can have an effect upon the actual arrival times of local tides. These factors also influence the range between mean high and low tides. Although there are variables to consider, the time and heights you will be presented with here are for most recreational purposes adequate. For more info on tidal shifts along with up to the minute calculations for correcting these charts, see the NOAA tides and currents website.
