Flightgear adds tides covering and uncovering littoral areas like tidal flats (mudflats). You can see tides as the day progresses - there are two highs and two lows per day.  
Flightgear now simulates tides covering and uncovering shallow areas (littoral areas), like tidal flats (mudflats). You can see tides as the day progresses - there are two highs and two lows per day. [The sun and moon position for calculating tides is from Flightgear's accurate celestial simulation (ephemeris) which gives the exact positions of planets and stars for the simulated time and date.]
