why are the waves so high in the night of full moon and a morning after that?
Answers
The Moon's Effect on Ocean Tides. The gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun makes the water in the oceans bulge, causing a continuous change between high and low tide. At New Moon and Full Moon the gravitational force of the Sun and the Moon act together and create spring tides

Heya....
Here's your answer....
We are aware that the gravitational attraction of the moon causes the oceans to bulge out in the direction of the moon. At the same time, another bulge occurs on the opposite side, since the Earth is also being pulled toward the moon - and away from the ocean of water on the far side. Tides occur every day.
A full moon occurs when the Earth is in between the Sun and the Moon (as the Sun sets, the Moon rises with the side that faces Earth fully exposed to sunlight; and a new moon is when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun (sun and the moon setting together). And roughly every fifteen days we have one or the other of this alignment. On those days, the gravitational attraction of both the Sun and the Moon act on the Earth and so the tides are higher. These are known as SPRING TIDES, but it has nothing to do with the "spring" season. It is probably because the tides "leap" up on those days, and "springen" in German means "leap". :)
"Neap" tides occur when the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one another with respect to the Earth - like the Sun overhead when the Moon is on the horizon and so on. Neap tides are weak and low.
