Latitude and elevation change.
The tidal bulge is largest under the moon (almost directly, it tails a little behind). The further away from the current latitude of the moons orbit you are the less mass(height) of the tidal bulge.
Elevation change is the second reason. If the tide is rising by 5 feet, but the slope of the ground rises that five feet over a distance of 20 feet, you only see the tide come in 20 feet. If the ground rises 5 feet over a distance of 200 feet, you will see water rushing in to fill the larger area.
