Ocean Springs Airport (5R2) sits in Ocean Springs, Mississippi at 20 ft MSL. It has one runway, 18/36, which is 3,500 ft long with an asphalt surface. The field is non-towered. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7. Gulfport Approach is on 124.6 for approach and departure work.
No ILS approaches are published here. The pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless ATC or the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport is close to the Gulf Coast, so expect a low, coastal environment with weather and wind changes that can move fast.
Ocean Springs Airport FBO is on the field. It carries 100LL. The published remarks also say the FBO accepts check and credit cards. Pilots should bring their own tiedown ropes. Runway end identifier lights are installed on 18 and 36. Medium intensity runway lights are also on both ends and are controlled on CTAF. The beacon is out of service. A lighted windsock is available on CTAF. For clearance delivery, contact Gulfport Approach. If approach is closed, contact Houston ARTCC. First-time arrivals should verify current lighting and any local procedures before launch.
