Hernán Cortés traveled primarily by ship across the Atlantic Ocean from Spain to the New World, arriving in present-day Mexico in 1519. After landing, he utilized coastal canoes and small boats for navigation along the coastline and rivers as he advanced inland. Cortés also relied on local indigenous guides and alliances to facilitate his journey through unfamiliar territories. His military expeditions involved a combination of land and water routes as he sought to conquer the Aztec Empire.
