John Cabot's planned destination was the western coast of North America, specifically seeking a route to Asia. He aimed to find a more direct passage to the riches of the East Indies, believing he could reach them by sailing westward. Instead, Cabot landed in what is likely present-day Newfoundland in 1497, marking one of the first European explorations of mainland North America.
