Yes. They had spotted them before that and had chased them up the English Channel until the Armada had stopped in Calais. Whilst the Spanish were in Calais, the English sent burning ships into the Armada and the Spanish panicked. Only two-thirds of the Armada made it back to Spain alive after being chased around Britain by the English.
