Pascagoula Tide Chart

Pascagoula tide times this week

Reading the tide at Pascagoula

These times come from the NOAA CO-OPS station at Pascagoula NOAA Lab, measured against mean lower low water (MLLW) — the datum every US chart uses, so a 1.5 ft prediction means a foot and a half above the average lowest tide, not above the bottom. Wind and pressure shift the real water level either side of the prediction: a hard onshore blow stacks water up and a strong offshore wind can pull a low tide well below what the table says.

Local tip: Tides on this coast are small and commonly diurnal, so count on one real current window in a day rather than two. Wind and river flow often matter more: a south breeze carries cleaner salt water up into the marsh, while a hard north wind empties the drains fast enough to strand a shallow boat.

For fishing, the times in the table matter less than what happens between them. Water moving is what turns the bite on, and the strongest flow is roughly midway between a high and a low — so the two hours either side of that midpoint usually beat slack water at either end, particularly around speckled trout and redfish.

Pascagoula tide questions

What time is high tide at Pascagoula today?

High tide at Pascagoula is at 2:34 AM (1.8 ft), predicted by NOAA at Pascagoula NOAA Lab. Wind can shift the actual water level either side of the prediction.

What time is low tide at Pascagoula today?

Low tide at Pascagoula is at 3:26 PM (0.5 ft). A strong offshore wind can pull the water lower than predicted, which matters on shallow flats and at boat ramps.

How big is the tide at Pascagoula?

Today's range at Pascagoula is about 1.4 ft. Florida's Gulf coast runs a moderate range that varies a lot by latitude — roughly two feet through the Sarasota and Charlotte Harbor beaches, building to four or five up the Nature Coast and into the Big Bend. Either way the range grows around the new and full moon — those spring tides move noticeably more water.

Which tide is best for fishing Pascagoula?

Moving water beats slack water almost everywhere. The strongest current runs roughly midway between a high and a low, so plan the two hours either side of that rather than the exact turn. First and last light overlapping a moving tide is the classic window.
