generally as the tide goes out the waves get hollower,so steeper takeoffs,faster breaking and as the tide comes in the waves will become fuller and more beginner friendly,depending on the beach and the banks at that time,sometimes an incoming tide will push a bit more swell in ,advantage of each depends on what you like to surf and your ability,hope this helps

Full of comedians is the breeze...I'd say it depends on the beach, conditions and size of the tide. Generally low tide can produce sucky dumpy waves as water on sand banks becomes shallow, some point breaks will only work on the low tho too as high tide can flood breaks... Have a chat to locals at your beach and get in the water as much as often and you'll soon work out when is best for you to surf

I would have responded earlier LozMan but I didn't think it was a serious question.
