True
False

False. Low tides occur when a coastline is located in the area between tidal bulges, while high tides occur in the tidal bulge itself. Tides are influenced by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun, creating bulges of water on the side of the Earth closest to these celestial bodies and on the opposite side.
