A quick definition of neap tide:

A neap tide is a type of tide that occurs when the sun's attraction partly counteracts the moon's during the first or last quarter of the moon. This means that the tide is lower than average. Tides are the rising and falling of seawater that are caused by the attraction of the sun and moon. They are used to measure a shore's upland boundary. There are also other types of tides, such as spring tides, which are higher than average and occur during the new moon and full moon.

A more thorough explanation:

A neap tide is a type of tide that occurs when the sun's attraction partly counteracts the moon's during the first or last quarter of the moon. This results in a tide that is lower than average.

For example, if the average high tide is 6 feet, a neap tide may only reach a height of 4 feet.

This phenomenon happens twice a month, during the first and last quarter of the moon. Neap tides are the opposite of spring tides, which occur during the new moon and full moon and result in higher than average tides.

Understanding neap tides is important for activities such as fishing, boating, and coastal development, as it can affect the water level and accessibility of certain areas.
