Coast Guard Base Honolulu is at 400 Sand Island Parkway, Honolulu, Hawaii 96819, according to the MilitaryINSTALLATIONS page for USCG Base Honolulu. Hawaii’s pet quarantine law and its statewide public school system apply to Coast Guard families as they do to every other military family in the state.

Checking in

During duty hours you check in at your unit’s designated command location: the base’s personnel and administration shop for Base Honolulu personnel, or the cutter’s yeoman for cutter crews, per the Base Honolulu check-in page. After hours, contact the Base Honolulu Officer of the Deck: 808-226-4170. Sponsorship requests go through the Base Honolulu admin tracker, and household goods questions to the YN1 at the transportation shop, per the Base Honolulu sponsorship page.

Emergencies

The Base Honolulu emergency assistance page lists:

  • After-hours emergency assistance: the Officer of the Deck, 808-226-4170, or the Base Honolulu duty corpsman, 808-291-7183.
  • Immediate health care: 911; for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, 988.

Hawaii rules that apply to Coast Guard families

These are covered, from their official sources, in the Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam guide:

  • Pets: Hawaii is rabies-free, and every dog and cat must meet the state’s import requirements; pets that qualify for the 5 Day Or Less program can be released at the Honolulu airport, while others are quarantined for up to 120 days.
  • Schools: there are no DoD schools in Hawaii; children attend Hawaii Department of Education schools or private schools.
  • Vehicles: personal vehicles must be safety inspected and registered within ten days after arrival on island.
  • Emergency care: Tripler Army Medical Center has the only military emergency room on Oahu.

Questions for your sponsor

Before you arrive, ask your sponsor where Coast Guard families are housed and how to apply, where you will stay on arrival and how Temporary Lodging Allowance starts, and which clinic serves your family.

The after-hours number to save

Save the Officer of the Deck’s number, 808-226-4170, before you fly; it is the after-hours check-in point and, with the duty corpsman, the base’s after-hours emergency assistance contact. For immediate health care, call 911.
