Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor is the site of the infamous air assault by Japan on December 7, 1941. Today it is still an active Naval Harbor as well as the final resting place of the USS Arizona. The USS Arizona is a memorial to the 1,177 young sailors who died during the Japanese sneak attack on December 7, 1941. Once known for its wealth of pearl oysters, hence the name Pearl Harbor, the area is now a solemn reminder of the tragic day. The visitors center is open from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily except Christmas, New Years and Thanksgiving. A 23-minute video is shown before you take a short boat ride out to the memorial. The entire experience is about 75 minutes. You can only get the free tickets at the visitors center. However you can pick them up and return at your tour time. No purses or bags of any sort are allowed on the boat - so leave them behind.

Visitors can also tour the USS Missouri Battleship and the Bowfin Submarine.
