click on the english flag top/centre to change it to English and then see the menu item on left called "About tides and tidal prediction". I haven't read the English translations but the Dutch pages contained short clear explanations of the major topics.
I am actually a college student enrolled in an oceanography class. The book we are useing give a good general overview. It is detailed enough to explain things in depth, for instance one chapter may deal with tides. Tides are pretty complicated and could have their own book! The following is the web link that is suggested to help reinforce whats in the text. This should give you some good info.
web sites are fine but who wants to read the screen for hours on end and text books cost a lot of coin that could be spent on diving. so may i suggest going to your local university/college library and sign out some books. They are cheap and can have some pretty pics. Its also need to read multiple views on things (like origin of the sea) and then make up your own ideas. Try "Margins of the Sea" it was a really interesting read because it was writen sixty some odd years ago i think and you can see how views have changed over time.
