Revisited
We decided to revisit Pearl Harbor while on Oahu for vacation. We decided to do the FREE Option, which includes:
- Access to the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center
- The Exhibit Galleries: “Road to War” and “Attack”
- Other Interpretive Exhibits throughout the Facility (i.e. USS Arizona Bell)
- The Remembrance Circle (a tribute to the men, women and children; both military and civilian, who were killed as a result of the attack on December 7, 1941)
- View of the USS Arizona Memorial
A very somber and humbling experience as you walk the grounds and explore the exhibits. A great learning experience to learn more about this important part of U.S. history.

I went to Pearl Harbor 30 yeas ago as a child and never forgot it especially because my grandfather who is still alive was there in the navy when it hit.

I’ve been able to visit Pearl Harbor and it really did leave an impact with me. Thinking of all those poor souls who lost their lives that day. Thank you for bringing back a nostalgic place.
