Arizona Memorial Closure

There are occasions (a few times per year) that the boats do not visit the Arizona Memorial. This can happen as a result of weather conditions, boat mechanical problems, or safety issues at the memorial. If we know in advance that this is happening, then we will do our best to notify you before your tour.

The movie at the Pearl Harbor Visitors Center, the boat to the Arizona Memorial, the Arizona Memorial, and the Pearl Harbor Visitors Center are all out of our control. If there is a closure for safety, weather, mechanical or other causes, tours that have already departed are not eligible for refunds.

Tour companies do not provide refunds if the Navy boats do not take guests to the Arizona Memorial. It is out of the control of tour companies that have already provided transportation.

Sometimes during closures that are not related to wind or boat maintenance, the boats will go near the memorial, but not board the memorial. in these cases, guests may still board boats to the memorial and float past it. They will also be able to see battleship’s remnants. But they won’t be able to disembark the boats and walk on the memorial.

Pick-up Locations

Tours include transportation from the locations mentioned on the tour page. Tours cannot be arranged to meet at Pearl Harbor.

If you do not specify a hotel or pick-up location in your reservation request, a default location may be assigned.  It is your responsibility to be at the Pick-up location at the time specified on the confirmation email.

If, for any reason, you do not receive the confirmation email, please contact us here https://pearlharbor.org/faqs/where-is-my-confirmation/ or call us at 808.626.5366. If you do not contact us to request a confirmation email, it will be assumed that you have received it and you will be responsible for being at the pick-up location at the specified time.
