Low tides occur where the disruption caused by tidal force is weakest (and water pressure caused by Earth's gravity is strongest). ... The sun's gravity also affects the tides, accounting for roughly one-third of the phenomenon. When the sun's gravity counteracts the moon's, it leads to lower-than-average "neap tides."
