What is tide that flows out towards the sea called?
The tide that flows out towards the sea is called the ebb tide. It occurs when the water level of the ocean recedes, exposing the shoreline. Ebb tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun, which creates a bulge of water on the side of the Earth facing the moon. This results in a lower water level on the opposite side of the Earth, causing the tide to recede.
