What time is high tide? Is there more than 1 high tide each day?
High tide occurs twice a day, approximately 12 hours apart, and shifts about 45 minutes later each day. In addition, the height of the tide varies on the bayside from about 8 to 12 feet depending on the position of the moon, the time of year, and the wind.
