Vasco de Balboa will be remembered as the first European to reach the Pacific Ocean from the New World in 1513. He played a significant role in the exploration and colonization of Central and South America, particularly in the region that is now Panama. Balboa's expedition demonstrated the possibility of reaching the Pacific by land and contributed to the European understanding of the world.
