They were the first Europeans ever to sail across the Pacific, and it was far larger then anyone had imagined. They went for 98 days without seeing any land and ran out of food and used almost all their water. They ate rats and sawdust to avoid starvation. Nineteen men died before they reached the Pacific island of Guam on March 6, 1521. Conflicts with the people of Guam and the nearby islands prevented Magellan from fully resupplying his ships. The crew finally got enough food to set out westward again, toward the Philippines.

Magellan and his crew stayed in the Philippines for many weeks and they got to know the islanders very well. On April 27, 1521, Ferdinand Magellan was killed when he took part in a battle between rival Filipino groups on the island of Mactan.

After the battle only about 110 of the original members remained. That was not enough to sail three ships. Therefore they abandoned one of the ships, called Conception. The two remaining ships sailed to the Spice Islands. At the Spice Islands the ships were loaded up with spices for the trip back.

The ship called the Trindad tried to return back to Spain the same way they had came. They sailed eastward across the Pacific Ocean but were caught in really bad weather. More than half of the crew members died. The rest of the group was forced to return to the Spice Islands and where they arrived there, the Portuguese imprisoned them.

The last ship that remained was the Victoria. That ship continued back to Spain. The Victoria experienced many hardships and many of the crew members died of malnutrition and starvation. Finally, on September 6, 1522, they reached Sanlucar de Barrameda in Spain, nearly three years after the voyage started. Five ships and 241 men began the journey. Only eighteen survivors returned to the starting spot. Those people completed the first voyage around the world that started with the dream of Ferdinand Magellan.
