Tide curve
Gold dots are high tides, green dots are low tides.
Day by day
Springs and neaps: tides run biggest a day or two after new and full moon (springs) and smallest around the quarter moons (neaps). Strong spring tides make for stronger current at the river mouth.
The tide curve comes from a global ocean model (Open-Meteo, CC BY 4.0), not a harbour tide gauge. Times can be out by up to an hour and the real range is bigger than shown. For anything that matters, check the officialSA Navy Hydrographic Office tide tables for Durban / Port Shepstone.
