Australia’s Largest Tides
Nowhere can you see the influence of the gravitational effects of the sun and the moon as when you watch the tidal stream flood and ebb over reef flats, through channels and up coastal estuaries. When perigee and full moons coincide, which happens in either March or April, extreme tidal variation takes place right around the world. Due to the cyclic phase of the moon’s rotation, the last extreme supermoon was met with much fanfare in January 2016, and we’ll need to wait until November 2034 for the next one.While Australia has some of the greatest tidal variations in the world, it is the Bay of Fundy, and Ungava Bay, both in Canada the provide us with a most extreme tidal variation. These tidal variations can result in a staggering difference of up to 16.3 metres between high and low tides.
