A spring tide—popularly known as a "King Tide"—refers to the 'springing forth' of the tide during new and full moon. A neap tide —seven days after a spring tide—refers to a period of moderate tides when the sun and moon are at right angles to each other.

Spring tide essentially is the two tides where the sea is at its most extreme; the highest and lowest. In contrast, a neap tide is one where the difference between the high and low tides is at its lowest.
20 Δεκ 2021 · When the sun, the earth and the moon are in one line (full and new moon), the solar and lunar tides reinforce each other. The ellipsoid becomes more pronounced and the tide gets a bigger amplitude and is called spring tide.
30 Απρ 2018 · Both the moon and sun exert a gravitational tug upon the earth, the force of which produces tides in the World Ocean. The relative positions of the three celestial bodies determines the timing of the most and least pronounced tidal ranges, known respectively as spring and neap tides.
15 Φεβ 2021 · A neap tide is the lowest level of high tide; a tide that occurs when the difference between high and low tide is least. Neap tide comes twice a month, in the first and third quarters of the moon.
28 Σεπ 2024 · Spring tide, tide of maximal range, near the time of new and full moon when the Sun and Moon are in syzygy—i.e., aligned with the Earth. Conjunction is the time during new moon when the Sun and Moon lie on the same side of the Earth. The other syzygy condition, opposition, occurs during full moon.
16 Αυγ 2024 · Neap tides occur during the first and third quarters of the Moon. Because spring tides occur every time there is a full or new Moon, and neap tides occur every time there is a first quarter or third quarter Moon, there are two spring tides and two neap tides every 29.5 days.
