English term or phrase: tidal Thames

This is a document that talks about mooring on the tidal Thames. I would be inclined to translate it into "de aan getijden onderhevige Thames" but it is rather a lengthy phrase. Can anyone come up with a better alternative?

Many thanks

Explanation:
Voor 'mooring on the tidal Thames' zou ik kiezen 'afmeren op de getijdenrivier de Theems'.
