Sir Francis Drake was primarily known as an explorer, naval officer, and privateer rather than a scholar or academic. He studied navigation, seamanship, and maritime warfare, gaining skills that enabled him to lead expeditions across the seas, including his famous circumnavigation of the globe from 1577 to 1580. His experiences at sea and interactions with various cultures also contributed to his knowledge of geography and global trade routes.
