A nice memorial to honor the 58 fallen sailors of the USS Utah and view the remaining wreckage where 54 sailors remain entombed on the ship. There are parking spaces and the memorial itself is handicap accessible. Note: You’ll need a military ID or authorized base pass to drive on to Ford Island to see this memorial. It is located just past the Navy Lodge, on the water, near historic Luke Field military quarters. If you can, park at the memorial and walk the historic path around the island by following the blue dots. Enjoy.

The forgotten memorial. If you are on Ford Island be sure to stop here. Great view and very serene. And amazing place to honor the fallen. Be sure to take advantage of the history trail is you have the time and access!

One of my favorite places to visit. I especially like to go when the sun is setting. I never miss it and always make sure I go there every time I come to Oahu!!

An under-visited memorial on the west side of Ford Island. While not as famous as the USS Arizona or USS Missouri, this is still an excellent memorial to visit as it is quiet, out of the way and not as trafficked. The memorial is nice, well done and it is customary to leave a coin when you visit (I suggest you do).As opposed to the Arizona, there is more left of the ship to see. It is the rusted, hulking underside of the ship. You can see it rusting away but you can also see where cuts were made to (try to) extract Sailors and Marines. Please visit but be mindful as this is the resting place for the dead. And remember to bring coins to leave on at the base of the flagpole, as is customary.

This is nice to visit. The location is on the naval base and I would recommend seeing the Arizona memorial from the base as well.

Coming here is the most special thing to do, knowing these people died without notice makes me sad.

Absolutely great tour of USS Utah Memorial in Hawaii. We learn the history of the USS Utah during the attack on Pearl Harbor on the 7 December 1941. We salute and honor the sailors and Marines who made the supreme sacrifice on the USS Utah . It was a great memorial to visit

Such a great part of history! A hidden gem for sure

A very rewarding experience if youre able to get access to go.

Memorable. and leave a coin for the certain reason

Its a good piece of history however not a main place to visit. I would make it a side trip while you are going to see some of the other sites on ford island. Parking is very limited but free.

Great historical piece. Needs military clearance

Quiet place to give respect to our fallen heroes. Have to have a military I.D. to get to it though.

Would love to see the memorial expanded a bit with additional info on the ship while she was in her prime. Often overlooked and over shadowed by the USS Arizona on the opposite side of the island. Not sure if you can even get to it if you are not active or retired military. I believe they offer it as a stop, but didnt see any of the busses that take folks to the USS Missouri or the Air Museum drive by while I was there.

Beautiful and sad. Historically significant. Enjoy a quiet moment here and read the information

One of the ships that was sunk during the attack on Pearl Harbor. It is a tangible example of the force which decisively engaged the sleeping giant and brought the United States into World War 2. This is a free exhibit and well preserved place to pay respect to those who gave their lives to defend our nation.

The story of the Utah is just as impressive as the Arizona. Very brave men. If you love America, you will love this.

Nice little known spot that is overlooked compared to the other memorials on Ford island. Worth the visit if you have access to the base.

Very difficult to get to without a military ID, but well worth the trip if you can get there. The other side of Pearl Harbor and in a way more impactful for me than some of the other sites. There is much more of the ship showing above the water than at the Arizona. The place has a very peaceful, almost forgotten feel to it. Its an important part of the Pearl Harbor story and should be made more easy to visit by people who can make the trip to Ford Island.

My favorite memorial on Ford Island. So serene and peaceful. A wonderful way to reflect on the lives of those Sailors who went before us.

Not much to see or anything else in the area, but nice to witness these pieces from history all over the base

Beautiful, seren and quiet, the sunset is amazing here.

Very sobering. Hats off to those sailors.

Great to see this forgotten memorial. My great uncle was one of the survivors off the USS Utah.

This is a quiet and serene area. The memorial itself is small but when you get to it you can definitely get a sense of the emotions surrounding the USS Utah.History happened at this spot.Went on a walk early in the morning with my pup and we decided to check it out. Definitely a spot to appreciate and learn.

Driving around seeing the memorials was an emotional part of the trip. These are not going to last forever and absolutely worth the time to visit.

Historic site!

Solemn place to remember the fallen

Its a beautiful dedication to the lives lost on that tragic day. A very surreal and humbling sight.

Very touching, very somber.

Nice memorial located on Ford Island, military base. Names engraved, flag, and ship is visible.

A great place to see but you have to have a club card to get in.

A very surreal and saddening sight, but one thats worth visiting. Its free to visit and quiet. Its a nice spot to pay your respects to those who lost their lives during WWII.

A tribute to the USS Utah on Ford Island.

This is an awesome place! Base access is required.

A somber reminder of the sacrifices from our great generation of World War II.

It is located on Ford Island and can only be accessed by going on a bus tour or if you are military. This island is a good place to pay homage to those who have their lives for our freedom.

Very nice memorial for anyone with DoD access to Ford Island.

A beautiful memorial to eternalize a somber event.

Solemn and quiet memorial to those who gave their lives.

The Utah is another boat that was hit in Pearl Harbor. Because there werent as many lives lost as the Arizona, it wasnt submerged. 62 sailors died on the Utah.There is a small memorial at the site.

Peaceful place. I you have gate access to Ford Island you can drive to this memorial site.

This is often referred to as the forgotten memorial, as no tour goes out there and you have to have base access to get to it, but if you do go out there, Id encourage you to read the story of the Utah.

Lesser known but equally significant WW II memorial as the Arizona. Worth the time and effort to visit.

Small memorial, given most focus on the Arizona. But at low tide you can see a lot.

9/11 memorial service

Difficult to visit only because this is still a Navy base and is not a normal visitors stop. However, a must see memorial dedicated to the 58 who lost their lives on December 7th. She was attacked because she occupied an aircraft carriers normal mooring spot. It was never raised because it was not an active battleship (it was a target ship) and it was too costly after a few attempts. It is an eternal resting place for the sailors died on this ship.

Very Touching Memorial, lets not forget about these Brave Service Members

A solemn memorial to the crew of the USS Utah, a must see if you have the credentials to get on Ford island. Not as spectacular as the Arizona memorial but just as awe inspiring and historically relevant. Would recommend for those looking for a less travelled historical site.

Very good experience

The USS Utah Memorial is located on Ford Island. We are fortunate to have a retired military member of the family based on Oahu. Unfortunately, those without military credentials and their guest cannot reach this Memorial. Although smaller then the Arizona Memorial it is no less dramatic. The hull of the ship can still be seen rusting above the waterline. It is another somber reminder of what happened on December 7th 1941.

Amazing insight into shared history at this location.

Being a native from Utah this monument really appealed to me. It was much mlre tranquil and peaceful than the Arizona monument. If you are ever lucky enough to see this memorial I highly recommend taking some time to just look out and remember all those in our armed forces who sacrificed everything.

A nice memorial to those who died during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Sorry for the men who died ! RESPECT BUT DONT JOIN!100%!

Really nice place, can see the ship really well!

A humble, slumbering memorial

USS Utah is not very well sign posted but it is indeed open and available to the public. Nice memorial bridge going out to the sunken ship, very quiet and peaceful area as well.

Somber resting place to a grand old ship

What a wonderful surprise! Most know about the Arizona memorial but I had no idea there was a memorial for the Utah. Beautifully serene and simple this is a wonderful memorial for the brave souls who lost their lives on the Day of Infamy.

A somber reminder if the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Utah stills stay capsized on its side after 77 years... someday we can build great lifes instead of men who died in battle.

Special on base memorial viewing.

A place of respect and history. Silent and humbling.

Kind of a hidden memorial. Youll need to make the first immediate right after the bridge to Ford island. Known as the forgotten ship it is a very solemn and deserted memorial.

Sad story in history but it is a great experience.

Memorial great. Actual ship so corroded it is getting harder to tell what it was.

See it before it trusts away. It still bleeds oil for the tradgity that struck her

The USS Utah is a piece of history that not many people know about, its quiet and easy to get to with base access. Often over looked because of the UUS Arizona and USS Missouri

Beautiful and informative.

The USS Utah should have the same amount of attention as the USS Arizona does, Its always empty and just on the other side of Ford Island. A sad sight but a very well made memorial. Be sure to visit if you get the chance.

Worth a visit

Simple. Only accessible by those with a military ID.

Take advantage of opportunities such as this, to see first hand the massive defenses the USA has against all those who would dare threaten the freedoms this country has.

You can see part of the ship above the water and there area few plaques. Its a good place for reflection, not so much a place to take kids.

Very interesting...

It was life changing

Very nice. You see the side of the ship popping out.

Not much to see, really

Peaceful Memorial

Very sad that the USS Utah does not get the attention that the Arizona does. Nevertheless, this is a solemn, beautiful and peaceful memorial, a place to pay respects for the lives sacrificed for us.

Very moving experience. The memorial is simple yet impacting. The ship sunk on its side and a good portion of it sticks out above the water. Only one crew member survived the attack.

Not a whole lot to see here but really historic. Only available to those with base access.

Many dont know about the USS Utah. A simple memorial to those who died on Dec 7th 1941, aboard the WW1 ship that had been a converted battleship for target shooting. She lies on her side, with the remains of approx 59 sailors still serving board her. For more info on her history, search it on the net.

Must see site!!

Solemn and peaceful here. A++ would memorial again.

Most people cant get there but its worth trying.

A great monument that doesnt get nearly the visibility it deserves

Pay attention on the way there. You will be in what was the epicenter of the Pearl Harbor battle.

So much history here! Its a must when in Oahu

Bring bug spray. There were a ton of biting gnats. They covered our car and the walls of the memorial.

Great memorial. Simple. Accessable.

Humbling memorial.

Very nice memorial.

Nice memorial to one of the forgotten ships that was sunk during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Very touching Memorial

Not just the USS Arizona to see

Very educational

Its not huge, but it is amazing to see a piece of history, to just stand there and think back on that day.

Bless you God Anastasia.

Lots of info about the Utah and her sailors. Not much to see, so isnt great for young kids.
