Best Answer

The Separatists were religious groups of people who wanted to remain separate from the other groups in the English colony. With their decision to remain separated, they eventually departed England and headed toward America where they had expected to live together and practice their own ways of living with no interference. They spent sixty five days in the Atlantic Ocean throughout their journey. In 1620, they travelled on the Mayflower with the intention of landing in Jamestown. Eventually they made it to the north of Cape Cod. Although the Separatists' ship had been blown off course, it is possible that this was part of their original plan. They may have intended to travel to a place where they would be left alone to live the way that they wanted.
