Visitors will be able to explore the vessel, learn about its role in global trade routes linking Spain, the Americas and Asia, and discover what life was like aboard the famous sailing ships.
Adult tickets will cost £15, while tickets for children aged five to 10 will be £7.
Family tickets, covering two adults and three children, will be available for £37.
Ports of Ayr and Troon said ticket information has been provided by the company behind the Galeón Andalucía and added that further details are expected to be shared through official South Ayrshire Council channels, including Destination South Ayrshire.
The attraction will be open daily between 10am and 8pm throughout its stay in Ayr.
