Tbe correction of tbe ocean effects is certainly one of the serious problems which limit the interpretation of Earth Tides. Following the recommendations of the IX International Symposium on Earth Tides, we have started the drawing up of ocean tides maps of the main lunisolar potential harmonics for a zone close to Iberian Peninsula. The M2 Iberian Mapa es the first of a serie built up with two fundamental criteria, in one hand, it is an empiric map obtained from the harmonic constants observed in the zone and its neighbourings and on the other hand i thas been manteined the criterion that in the externe limits the isolines of amplitudes and phases must link with the correponding to the Schwiderski maps, which are the ones nearest to the observed reality in the gravimetric tide observations made in the Iberian Peninsula
