Sebastien Vizcaino was a French navigator and explorer who sailed primarily for Spain during the early 17th century. He is best known for his explorations along the California coast, particularly his mapping of the coast and his discovery of San Diego Bay in 1602. Vizcaino sought to establish Spanish claims to territory and facilitate trade, as well as to find suitable locations for mission establishments and settlements. His expeditions contributed significantly to the European understanding of the Pacific coastline of North America.
