The Pilgrims did not end up in Jamestown because they were initially aiming for the northern parts of the Virginia Colony, seeking a place for religious freedom. However, due to navigational errors and rough seas, they landed at Plymouth in present-day Massachusetts in December 1620. Unlike Jamestown, which was established in 1607 primarily for economic reasons, the Pilgrims sought to create a community based on their Puritan beliefs. Their arrival at Plymouth allowed them to establish a settlement that aligned more closely with their religious aspirations.
