Pearl Harbor National Memorial

When rest and relaxation are a top priority, Hawaii is a much-loved destination that promises to deliver on both fronts. Somewhere between the sand, surf and amazing landscape, Hawaii provides a scenic place to find your calm and enjoy the island breeze. Beyond the scenery, Hawaii is also a destination that inspires through its rich history. When it comes to military influence, Hawaii has long been a place with a vast story to tell. For those with a heart for encountering moving moments from the past, a visit to the Pearl Harbor National Memorial during a stay is an absolute must.

 

Remembering the Fallen

Pearl Harbor came under attack on December 7, 1941, as the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service launched a campaign against the U.S. Naval Base that turned a tranquil scene into deadly destruction in moments. A vast number of servicemen lost their lives and in the history books, the attack at Pearl Harbor would also mark the day the U.S. decided to enter actively into World War II. With the passage of this violent past, it’s important to take time to remember those that gave their lives for freedom, and guests to the Pearl Harbor National Memorial in Hawaii have the opportunity to do exactly that when they visit the very area where the event took place.

 

Making the Most of Pearl Harbor National Memorial Hawaii

A trip to the Pearl Harbor National Memorial generally begins at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center which offers a bag check for a convenient $5. From here, guests can plan on spending the day visiting the four main exhibits that the memorial hosts. Begin a tour of the Arizona Memorial with a short documentary that outlines the events of the tragedy and is followed by a boat ride out to the memorial itself. The Battleship Missouri Memorial and USS Bowfin Submarine and Park are frequent follow-up stops to the Arizona Memorial. Those that make their way to Ford Island will enjoy insightful time spent at the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum.
