Camp on Pulau Songsong in Kedah during the new or full moon phases. On the Chinese or Muslim lunar calendars, these fall on the 1st (new moon) or 15th (full moon) of the month.

Simply put, the sun and moon are aligned in such a way during these phases that their gravitational pull on Earth comes from roughly the same direction. This alignment heavily influences the tides – amplifying both the highs and the lows.
