Monterey Bay Aquarium already reopened to members on May 1, and general admission tickets are on sale for May 15 through July 31. There were more than 7,000 users waiting online to get their tickets as of 3 p.m. ET Wednesday.

Tickets for Aug. 1 to Sept. 30 will go on sale June 1, and on July 1 tickets will be available through December 31.
