The Pearl Harbor National Memorial, home to the extraordinary USS Submarine Museum and Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum, is more than just a collection of artifacts. This is where history comes alive, telling tales of courage, innovation, and submarines' vital role in World War II.

USS Submarine Museum

The USS Bowfin Submarine, a National Historic Landmark since 1986, has captivated visitors long before the visitor center was built. It's not just a museum; it's a powerful testament to the dedication of American submariners.

Brave History in Brief

Stepping aboard the Bowfin transports you back in time. Consider the cramped conditions, the stress and tension at all times, and the sheer acts of bravery the sailors showed here. The included audio tour, available in multiple languages, will take you through the submarine and the Pacific Fleet Submarine Museum as they share incredible stories of the crew and their important missions. You will learn of the problems they encountered, the design flaws in the Mk.14 torpedo, which did not wholly work until the war's end, and the incredible successes they achieved under those conditions.

Pearl Harbor

Situated along the waters of Pearl Harbor, the museum complex is 2.5 acres and home to exhibitions exploring the dark depths of undersea warfare. The USS Bowfin and its surrounding museum and memorial stand as a testament to the lost submarines of 52 and the nearly 3,600 submariners who made the ultimate sacrifice during World War II.

Key Points to Remember

Open daily from 7 am to 5 pm, with the last tour at 4:30 pm, the USS Submarine Museum is a perfect addition to any visit to Pearl Harbor. Operated by the Pacific Fleet Submarine Memorial Association, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving this history, your visit supports their crucial mission.
