Willem Janszoon, a Dutch explorer, is best known for being the first European to chart parts of the Australian coastline. In 1606, he made landfall on the western side of Cape York Peninsula, specifically at what is now known as Australia's Gulf of Carpentaria. He also explored various islands in the Torres Strait, marking significant early European contact with the Australian continent.
