If this hypothesis was correct, high tide would occur when the Moon is at zenith and at nadir. Most places on the Earth's oceans do have a high tide every 12.421 hours, but whether those high tides occur at zenith and nadir is sheer luck.In most places, there's a predictable offset from the Moon's zenith/nadir and the time of high tide, and that offset is not zero.he picture of high tides on opposite sides of the Earth with a period of about 12 hours (actually 12 hours 25 minutes, due to the rotation of the Earth) is an oversimplification. It's just a starting point.
Full Answer. High tides are caused when the moon is either directly overhead or when it is located on the far side of the Earth. When the moon is 90 degrees from a location, a low tide will occur. The rotation of the Earth means that coastal areas will see tides of both types twice each day.
