Question

Very short answer type question.
What happens during high tide?

Answer 1

During high tide waves rise high and water covers much of the shore.

The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides. As the Earth rotates, your region of Earth passes through both of these bulges each day. When you're in one of the bulges, you experience a high tide.
