June 5, 2026– The Galeón Andalucía, a unique replica in the world of the legendary Spanish galleons, is extending its stay in Cardiff. Until June 14, it will be the last opportunity to visit the ship remain moored at Britannia Quay, where visitors can come aboard and explore the decks of this magnificent vessel.
Currently, and exclusively for those wishing to visit the ship from Monday to Thursday, we are running a SPECIAL TICKET OFFER available ONLY ONLINE. Buy your discounted tickets online and say goodbye to queues!
The Galeón Andalucía is a unique replica of the Spanish galleons that departed from the Andalusian coasts and, between the 16th and 18th centuries, sailed the Atlantic, navigated the Caribbean and American coasts, and covered the vast Pacific route, connecting and communicating the world. It is an impressive 55-meter-long ship with six decks, made from iroko and pine wood, and nearly 1,000 square meters of sail area across its seven sails. It was built in Punta Umbría (Huelva) with meticulous historical accuracy.
Caridff is one of the port stops on its grand 2026 European tour, during which it will visit ports in Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the Netherlands. Throughout this journey, the ship will participate in major international festivals and events, sailing as an authentic and unique floating museum of Andalusian maritime heritage and the history of these legendary ships that connected the world’s continents for three centuries.
A true floating museum of maritime culture, the Galeón has already sailed over 100,000 nautical miles across oceans and seas, visiting ports on four continents, including London, Shanghai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Manila, New York, and Quebec—proudly promoting the Spanish universal culture.
Until June 14, the public can explore its five decks and learn about its details, navigation, the daily life of its crew, and its own unique story. The experience is enriched by boarding a ship that still sails the world’s seas with a young crew who share astonishing tales from their long voyages.
We recommend to all the public to book their tickets now on the website of tickets.velacuadra.es not to miss this fantastic vessel! Schools and associations should schedule their visit by sending an e-mail to the following address ecampos@velacuadra.es
