Pearl Harbor monument |
One Arizona Memorial Place (Pearl Harbor) Honolulu, HI 96818 United States +1 808 422 0561 / +1 808 422 2771 http://www.arizonamemorial.org/ |
On December 7, 1941, the battleship USS Arizona was sunk, taking 1,100 sailors with it. In 1961, a solemn white monument was erected above the midsection of the ship. The deck of the Arizona lies now six feet below the surface of Pearl Harbor and is clearly visible from the monument. Take the shuttle launch from shore to the monument and view the dark shape of a once-great ship with its silent crew. Free guided tours are offered 8am-3pm daily. Visit the Battleship Missouri Memorial afterward. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Memorial to WWII submarines |
11 Arizona Memorial Drive Honolulu, HI 96818 United States +1 808 423 1341 http://www.bowfin.org/ |
This Pearl Harbor memorial park is dedicated to World War II submarines and their valiant crews. The park takes its name from a particularly distinguished sub, the USS Bowfin SS-287. Tour the narrow corridors and compartments where the crew worked, ate, and slept on nine hazardous missions. In addition to the Bowfin exhibit, there is a waterfront memorial. Also visit the Battleship Arizona and Missouri memorials. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Most famous site |
1 Arizona Memorial Place Honolulu, HI 96818 United States +1 808 422 2771 http://www.nps.gov/usar/ph_his... |
The tragic occurrences and subsequent world-changing events associated with this naval base make it a crucial part of American history and heritage. While the harbor is quite large, the Visitor's Center and Arizona Memorial are the hubs of tourism. Both places are free to enter, and both draw huge crowds. Several tours are available through activity brokers or tour companies. To reach Pearl Harbor from Waikiki Beach, take Nimitz Highway past the airport to Highway 99, and continue past the naval community. Review © 2007, Wcities |
