Aiea & West Honolulu 226 Consisting of the neighborhoods of Salt Lake, Moanalua and Aiea, West Honolulu is surrounded by military bases including Fort Shafter, Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam, Camp Smith and Tripler Army Center. Three main Oahu highways – the H1, H201, and H3 – also connect the area, along with Honolulu International Airport – making it a convenient commute to anywhere on the island or around the world.
