About the tides at Ocean Springs

Ocean Springs usually gets one high and one low tide a day, known as a diurnal tide. Water here rises and falls only about 1.5 ft on an average day. A strong onshore wind can push levels above the prediction. From the average lower low to the average higher high, the difference is 1.7 ft. Over the next two weeks the biggest daily range, 2.4 ft, comes on Friday, and the smallest, 0.4 ft, on October 8.

Predictions for Ocean Springs come from this station's own tide records. There is no live sensor, so the table shows forecast only. NOAA measured the tide here in 2005 to set up these predictions. The nearest other station is Hollingsworth Point, 2 mi away, where high tide comes about 24 min later.
