Every year there are two spring tides that are the highest - one during summer and one in winter. These are referred to as king tides.
The king tides occur because of the combined influence of a number of astronomical factors related to the Sun and the Moon and the gravitational attraction they each have on the water surface of the Earth.
The term king tide has no scientific definition – in popular usage it refers to any high tide well above average height.
The popular concept is that the king tides are the higher high waters which occur around December and January.
Equally high tides occur in the winter months but these are at night and not as obvious as those at this time of the year which generally occur during the day.
