A tidal race is a fast-moving body of water that occurs in coastal areas where tidal currents flow through a constricted channel or around a point. As the tide rises and falls, water moves rapidly through these narrow passages, creating strong currents and turbulent conditions. Tidal races can be found in various locations around the world, and they are often characterized by features such as whirlpools, eddies, and standing waves.
