directory of tides

A "directory of tides" typically refers to a structured listing or database that provides information about the timing and level of ocean tides at specific locations. It includes data such as high and low tide times, heights, and sometimes additional details like moon phases or tidal ranges. This information helps mariners, fishermen, and coastal residents plan activities around the natural ebb and flow of water levels caused by gravitational forces between the Earth, moon, and sun. Think of it as a schedule that predicts when the ocean will be higher or lower, aiding safe and efficient decision-making near coastlines.
