Bartolomeu Dias brought back knowledge of a sea route from Europe to Asia by sailing around the southern tip of Africa, now known as the Cape of Good Hope. He also brought back information about new lands and potential trade routes discovered during his voyage.
Bartolomeu Dias is most famous for being the first European to sail around the Cape of Good Hope in 1487, and was lost at sea on May 29,1488 on his way back to Lisbon Portugal.
Bartolomeu Dias sailed around Africa hoping to reach Asia. However, before he could get to Asia, his crew forced him to turn back. Vasco da Gama later became the first European to reach Asia by water.
Bartolomeu Dias' crew convinced him to turn back from the southern tip of Africa due to their fear and reluctance to continue sailing into the treacherous and uncharted waters further south. They were also running low on supplies and were facing harsh weather conditions.

Dias sailed to the southern tip of Africa in 1488.
Nothing. Dias`s crew gave up on him and he could not reach Asia. he reached the southern tip of Africa only.
Bartolomeu Dias experienced the failure of not being able to reach India during his expedition in 1488. Instead, he encountered strong winds and rough seas that forced him to turn back. However, his journey did reveal the southern tip of Africa, paving the way for future explorers to establish a sea route to India.
That information may be available in an archive in Portugal. But the information that's readily accessible includes neither the birth date nor the home town of Bartolomeu Dias [c. 1450-May 29, 1500]. Dias' two children, Simao and Antonio, had as last names Dias de Novais. Novais is a parish in Vila Nova de Famalicao, which is a municipality in the northern Portuguese district of Braga. So it's possible that Dias, and his ancestors, may have been from Novais. Portuguese historians suggest that both children may have been the offspring of one marriage. But neither the marriage date nor the bride's name is forthcoming. That information may be available through the records of the Catholic Church. For Dias was Catholic. The information won't be available from generations of preserved family history. For Dias' line went extinct with his great granddaughters, Dona Paula de Novais and Dona Violante de Castro, neither of whom married or left behind any known children.
