Pearl Harbor
Pearl Harbor is a U.S. naval base near Honolulu, Hawaii that was the site of a surprise attack on the United States by Japan on December 7, 1941. Once America's most important naval base in the Pacific, Pearl Harbor remains an active military base and a tourist attraction for its four historical sites: the USS Arizona Memorial, Battleship Missouri, Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum, and USS Bowfin submarine.
Learn about the events that took place in Pearl Harbor on museum tours, visit the shrine of fallen marines on the USS Arizona, and spot the oil still leaking from the ship. See bullet holes left by the attack, aircraft dating to WWII, and get a glimpse into life aboard navy ships back in the days. A tour of all four historical sites takes 7-8 hours, so plan your day accordingly. Bags are not permitted at the sites, but you can bring a water bottle and refill at the many water fountains here.
