NEAP TIDES
Neap Tides are part of the normal tidal cycle and occur each month when the sun and moon are at right angles to the earth.
During this time, their total gravitational pull on the Earth’s water is weakened because the water flows from two different directions – high tides are lower, and low tides are higher. For this reason, Horizontal Falls Seaplane Adventures does not operate during a neap tide.
