When the tides are especially strong due to the gravitational alignment of the sun and moon, it is called a "spring tide." This phenomenon occurs during full moons and new moons when the sun, moon, and Earth are in alignment, resulting in higher high tides and lower low tides. Spring tides typically have a greater variation between high and low water levels compared to neap tides, which occur when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other.
