How much time is there between a high tide and a low tide?

On average, high tides are separated by about 12 hours and 24 minutes. The 12 hours is because of earth’s rotation, and the 24 minutes is compensation for the movement of the moon. So low tides would be about half way through those 12 hour 24 minute periods.
