Best Answer

Ponce de Leon did most of his exploring in the Caribbean and Florida. He was the first explorer in Florida, which he named. He wanted to find the fountain of youth that he believed was in that area.

Why did Juan Ponce de Leon go on his 1st voyage with Christopher Columbus?

De Leon and Columbus were NOT on the same voyage. They were both sent by Spain, but Columbus never reached the main land of the North America and De Leon did. Columbus sailed in 1492, but De Leon didn't leave Spain until 1510. The only connection they may have had is that De Leon was made governor of Hispaniola and then Porto Rico. I know Columbus thought that those should have been his jobs.
