Hi everyone,
I made this map with the data from [https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/en/data](https://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/en/data) (world wide mean tidal range), processed it with QGIS (colour, isolines etc.) and did the rest on adobe illustrator to make it more beautiful and add labels.
Hope you like it, CC welcome..!
My [website](https://www.perrinremonte.com/) for more maps for those interested 🙂
Can someone ELI5 why tides aren’t uniform? Why are they very large is some bays? Why is the North Sea relatively mild and areas around GB much larger?
This is amazing. As someone who grew up in a town with 3-4m tides I’m only now discovering that this isn’t actually normal
I love the visual, but question the labels slightly. For instance, the highest tidal range in Europe is at the Port of Avonmouth in the Bristol Channel. Yet the labelling indicates it’s in France.

12m tides in Normandy are crazy!
Excellent! (minor typo: rhythm)
