A tide clock is a type of timekeeping device that is specifically designed to track the changing tides in coastal areas. Unlike a standard clock that measures hours and minutes, a tide clock measures the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the gravitational forces exerted by the moon and the sun. Tide clocks typically have a dial similar to a regular clock, but instead of just hours and minutes, they feature a scale that represents tidal states.
