Air Station Barbers Point is located on the island of Oahu. Oahu blends timeless Hawaiian beauty with modern amenities and attractions. Swim in the warm waters of Waikiki, then take in the dramatic mountain views at Nuuanu Pali Lookout. Watch surfers at the legendary North Shore, then explore the vibrant nightlife of Honolulu. Enjoy local cuisine in Kapahulu or fine dining at noted Hawaii Regional Cuisine restaurants. Whether visiting natural wonders or urban favorites, Oahu offers experiences for every lifestyle.
Members of Air Station Barbers Point live across the island, with some choosing short commutes from the growing Kapolei neighborhoods while others travel across the island to the scenic Windward Coast near Kailua and Kaneohe Bay. Oahu offers a diverse mix of culture, landscape, and housing suitable for all station personnel.
To assist transferring members, the Coast Guard provides a Hawaiian Islands Relocation Handbook to help prepare for the move. The handbook includes information on housing, transportation, real estate, schools, pets, and more. View the relocation handbook.
