Santa Cruz County has reached that level, and so, the Boardwalk can open, the Boardwalk will allow 300 people in the amusement ride section at any one time.
The state guidelines also state that only people who live in Santa Cruz County can visit the park.
They can open to a maximum of either 500 people or 25% of maximum capacity, whichever number is smaller.
However, theme parks that have a maximum capacity of less than 15,000 people are allowed to open in the third tier.
