Diamond Head is a volcanic tuff cone and state monument located on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

Built during World War II, the Battleship Missouri finished production in time to serve at the battles of Okinawa and Iwo Jima. Designed to be a fast battleship, just like her Iowa-class sisters – USS Iowa (BB 61), USS New Jersey (BB 62), and USS Wisconsin (BB 64) – the Missouri was the youngest of the fleet.
Measuring 887'3" (270.4m) in length, the ship could travel faster than 33 knots, a notable difference from her Japanese contemporaries and their 26-knot capacity. During a tour of the ship, you'll have the chance to explore the decks and learn fascinating facts about the Missouri's past.
Pearl Harbor is a lagoon harbor on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, west of Honolulu. It's been long visited by the Naval fleet of the United States, and it's the headquarters of the United States Pacific Fleet. This is the site of the attack on Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan on December 7, 1941, which was the immediate cause of the United States' entry into World War II.
Located on busy Honolulu Harbor in downtown Honolulu, Aloha Tower is an iconic symbol of Hawaiʻi and one of the most recognizable landmarks in the state.
Completed in 1926 and standing at 184-feet tall, Aloha Tower was the tallest building on the island for four decades, offering spectacular views of the harbor with its top floor housing an observatory and lookout station for harbor pilots. Its lighthouse served as a navigation landmark that could be seen from 15 miles at sea, while its clock was one of the largest in the United States. The tower stood as a welcoming beacon for visitors when travel to Oʻahu was done entirely by sea, the "ALOHA" etched on its walls greeting thousands of ship passengers entering Honolulu Harbor.
