Nice free museum located on the beach in town. Building is the actual military installation, which was really cool. Exhibits were well done and provided education beyond the Pearl Harbor story. Very glad we went!

I highly recommend that if you are here, visit this. The museum is in a bunker and filled with so much history. Little more light would be great but the dimness adds to the mystic and reality of the place it is an amazing walk through the history. While you're here, don't forget to check out the Corps of Engineers museum just above it…

We had a chance to visit this free museum because it was located near our hotel. The U.S. Army Museum of Hawaii is open Tues - Sat from 10 AM - 5 PM.

It was a very interesting and informative one-hour visit.…

The exhibits offer military history beginning with early Hawaiians and continues past Vietnam. There are weapons, uniforms, models, historical photos and a vast amount of information. Must see in Waikiki!…
