Visitor Access Limited to USS Arizona Memorial

Boat transport to the USS Arizona Memorial will be temporarily discontinued on Monday, May 7, 2018, due to a recently detected crack in the supporting structure for the visitor loading ramp. Facility specialists have already begun evaluations of the problem and the National Park Service will continue this structural safety assessment tomorrow.

USS Arizona Memorial programs will continue as scheduled, however, visitors will be taken on harbor tours in the vicinity of the Memorial instead of disembarking there. We will inform the public of any changes to visitor access and make every effort to resume normal operations as soon as possible. Please understand that visitor safety is our primary concern, and we thank everyone for their understanding and patience.

Visitation to our partner sites, including the Battleship Missouri Memorial, the USS Bowfin Submarine Museum & Park, and the Pacific Aviation Museum Pearl Harbor, will not be affected.
