Yes, Vasco da Gama had significant contact with India during his voyages. He was the first European to reach India by sea, arriving at Calicut (present-day Kozhikode) in May 1498. His arrival marked the beginning of direct maritime trade between Europe and India, establishing Portuguese influence in the region. This contact initiated a new era of exploration and trade that would have lasting impacts on both European and Indian societies.
