Overview

Step back in time and discover history where it actually happened at the Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum.

Located in two World War II-era hangars that were bombed during the infamous attack of December 7, 1941, this one-of-a-kind museum brings the past to life with incredible aircraft, immersive exhibits and powerful stories.

Explore hangars #37 and #79 on a self-guided tour, complete with easy-to-use audio guides that share fascinating tales about the planes and the people who flew them. From a civilian plane riddled with bullet holes to legendary aircraft like the B-25B Mitchell and the SBD Dauntless Dive Bomber, every corner of the museum reveals something awe-inspiring.

Want to kick things up a notch? Kids (and kids at heart) can hop into a thrilling 360-degree combat flight simulator and test their pilot skills. For an even bigger adventure, upgrade to the Top of the Tower Tour and climb 15 stories for unbeatable 360° views, a look at the restored elevator and a chance to stand in a space closed to the public for decades.

When you’re ready for a break, swing by the Hangar Café – a fun, island-inspired restaurant designed to feel like a pilot’s club on a faraway Pacific outpost, or browse the aviation-themed gift shop for unique keepsakes.

The Pearl Harbor Aviation Museum is more than just history – it’s an unforgettable, family-friendly experience filled with stories, sights and surprises for all ages.
