It is not known for certain which of the islands Columbus landed on first. Some believe it was San Salvador (In the Bahamas) Other believe it was Hispaniola, which is now shared by the Dominican Republic and Haiti.

Christopher Columbus first landed in the Bahamas in what he called San Salvador. The true location is unknown to this day, but may have been the modern San Salvador, Samana Cay, or the Plana Cays.
