Dan
Great place to learn about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in World War II as well as Navy aviation. Great location with flight simulators for everyone that wants to be a pilot. There is a well stocked store and very clean snack bar with lots of tasty treats. The tower has magnificent views of Ford Island as well as Pearl Harbor and the surrounding mountains. Great place to visit for both young and old and they still have bullet holes from the original attack.

The museum and staff are great. There's a ton of aircraft history here! Also, while it does cost extra, I really appreciated going up the tower. The views of the harbor, city and island are pretty amazing. The guide was really informative ! I'm not fond of heights but it was totally worth it to me.

This place, while beautiful, is not worth a stand-alone entrance fee. They have some very nice planes on display but not enough for a $30 charge. My suggestion would be that it should be added on to the Missouri's entrance fee by maybe $10. The attached video is basically the entire aviation museum.

Visiting the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum was an incredible experience from start to finish. The moment you step inside, you can feel the history come alive. The exhibits are thoughtfully designed, showcasing everything from World War II aircraft to modern military jets, and each display tells a powerful story of courage, innovation, and sacrifice. The museum does an outstanding job of blending education with emotion. Walking through Hangar 37 and Hangar 79, you get to see bullet holes from the attack on Pearl Harbor still visible on the glass—an awe-inspiring reminder of what took place right there on Ford Island. The aircraft are beautifully preserved, and the interactive exhibits make it enjoyable for all ages. The staff and volunteers were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, eager to share details and personal stories that made the visit even more meaningful. I especially enjoyed the flight simulator—it was a fun way to experience what it might have been like to pilot one of those legendary planes. Overall, the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates history, aviation, or simply wants to better understand the bravery that shaped our nation. It’s not just a museum—it’s a powerful journey through time that leaves you with a deep sense of respect and gratitude. Would highly recommend making this a key stop when visiting Oahu!
