Christopher Columbus had a mixed view of the Caribbean islands he encountered during his voyages. He was initially impressed by their beauty, lush landscapes, and the potential for resource exploitation. However, his interactions with the indigenous peoples were often marked by conflict and exploitation, which overshadowed any genuine appreciation he may have had for the islands themselves. Overall, his motivations were primarily driven by the pursuit of wealth and expansion for Spain rather than a true admiration for the islands.
