Atlantic ocean is closest to Mississippi -

Mississippi is a southern state of the United States. The state takes its name from the Mississippi River, which flows along the western boundary. The name, which means "great river," comes from either Ojibwe, a Native American language spoken around the river's headwaters, or some other closely related Algonquian language. Nicknames for Mississippi are the Magnolia State and the Hospitality State.

Mississippi is bordered on the north by the state of Tennessee; on the east by Alabama, on the south by Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico; and on the west by Louisiana and Arkansas (across the Mississippi River).

Major rivers include Mississippi River, Big Black River, Pearl River, Yazoo River, Pascagoula River, and Tombigbee River. Major lakes include Ross Barnett Reservoir, Arkabutla Lake, Sardis Lake, and Grenada Lake.

I would have said the Gulf of Mexico, but that's not an ocean, the nearest ocean by/to the Mississippi is the Atlantic Ocean. Look at a map or an atlas.

if you do mapquest from St Louis to Long Beach, CA and then St. Louis to Norfolk, Va you will find that the Pacific Ocean is twice as far away as the Atlantic. I also looked at New Orleans to San Diego and it was close to the same distance.
