Juan Ponce de León explored primarily in search of the legendary Fountain of Youth, which he believed could restore youth and vitality. Additionally, he sought to expand Spanish territories in the New World and establish settlements. His expeditions, particularly to Florida in 1513, were motivated by the potential for wealth and the spread of Christianity. Ultimately, he played a significant role in the early exploration and colonization of North America.
