Vasco Núñez de Balboa was a Spanish explorer known for being the first European to see the Pacific Ocean from the New World in 1513. He crossed the Isthmus of Panama, where he claimed the ocean and its surrounding lands for Spain. Balboa's expeditions contributed significantly to European knowledge of the Americas and facilitated further exploration and conquest. Despite his achievements, he faced political challenges and was executed in 1519 due to conflicts with other Spanish authorities.
