The tag tidal=yes indicates that an element is in the tidal range. It could be a river, shore, part of the harbour or water area.
When the part of the harbour has a gate which does not let the tide in you can tag it with tidal=no. But normally this is default value which is not used.
How to map?
River
River flow
waterway=river + name=* + tidal=yes
River's water body
natural=water + water=river + tidal=yes
Tidal area at sea
Areas in the tidal range between 
mean high water spring (natural=coastline) and mean low water spring can be tagged with tidal=yes to explicitly indicate this. Some tags commonly used for these areas like natural=wetland + wetland=tidalflat already imply the area being in the tidal range.
Values
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| yes | Indicates that an area is in the tidal range. The top of the tidal range is generally taken to be at natural=coastline; i.e., mean high-water spring (MHWS). |
| no | Default. Disambiguates whether item is not in the tidal range, or has not been considered for tagging. Not explicitly required. |
