Where can i find a beach with low tides at this time year? I would like to go snorkelling but Thailand seems to have strong, high tides at the moment.

As seen in the sticky:
>/trv/ is a slow board, you don't need to bump more than once a day -- it's OK if your thread is not on the front page, we look several pages deep here. You can do that. too, looking for threads on your topic.

To answer your question, tide height normally runs on a two-week cycle due to the lunar cycle taking about 28 days. Just wait it out.

There are two low tides every day i most places in the world (sloshing in a few restricted areas like bays and seas with restricted inlets can change that, but for a given stretch of open beach, it's what happens. Tides advance about an hour each day -- if there is a low tide around 10 in the morning one day, it will be low ROUGHLY around 11 the next day.

High tides are highest and low tides lowest around full and new moons, tidal change is less extreme around the half-moons, though local conditions as noted above can also cause a lag in this. Here's a lunar phases calendar: http://www.moonconnection.com/moon_phases_calendar.phtml

The AVERAGE level of the water , disregarding tides, can vary with the wind -- strong winds blowing from the ocean over a prolonged time pile up water against the land, prolonged breezes blowing from the land do the opposite.

Here is a tide table for Pattaya, as an example -- if you are not going there, google "tide table (name of place you are going)
