Your Guide to the Top Things to Do On Oahu

12 Pearl Harbor

Pearl Harbor played such a profound role in America's modern history that a USS Arizona memorial visit is almost a given when you visit Oahu. More than a thousand Marines are entombed here, and millions of travelers have made a point to pay homage to them over the years. The memorial may be closed for repairs when you go, but free half-hour harbor tours make up for that. Reserve a ticket online or buy a pass to see the USS Missouri as well.
