Bag Policy and Safety Information
Bags that conceal their contents and exceed 1.25 × 2.25 × 5.5 inches are prohibited at the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center. This includes backpacks, purses, camera bags, fanny packs, diaper bags, and luggage. Paid baggage storage is available near the entrance.
Clear bags with visible contents are permitted and exempt from these size limits. Wheelchairs, strollers, small cameras, and water bottles are also permitted. Pack baby essentials in a clear, resealable bag. Medical bags must be declared to security and contain only medically necessary supplies. All items are subject to inspection and approval by National Park Service security staff.
