Then why are there stronger tides around the UK while the Atlantic is pretty in between where I'd expect the most flow.

Is it because water piles up by the shores? Does the direction of earths rotation have an effect on which coasts have different tides then too?

Also I think it would be fun to have an ocean depth map next to it to visualize how far the water ebbs.
