This causes especially high high tides--called spring tides. The same thing happens during a full moon, when the sun and moon line up on opposite sides of the planet--each pulling from both ends. ... The surf grows when it approaches a beach, and the tide increases.

The statement that describes what is happening at high tide is: The moon's gravity is pulling ocean water into a bulge.
