Successive high tides and/or low tides will have significantly different heights.
A map highlights tidal patterns, with red lines for diurnal tides, blue for semidiurnal, purple for mixed. Diurnal tides in Gulf of Mexico, Bering Sea; semidiurnal in North Sea, Bay of Bengal; mixed in various coastal regions globally.
