Battery Pennsylvania at Mokapu Point is a Marine Corps base today. It is difficult to visit and next to a firing range. (Guns from the USS Arizona.)
Some other Coastal Battery sites:
Battery Adair is under an admiral's house and used as a cellar.
Battery Arizona at Kahe Point is by a landfill owned by Waster Management. The guns for it were from the USS Arizona.
Oahu was ringed by hundreds of mass-produced pill boxes in 1942, many still exist. Also, many anti-aircraft batteries ()mostly 3-inch, 20mm) were constructed between 1942 and 1945.
