Bartholomew Dias, a Portuguese explorer, was the first known European to reach the southernmost tip of Africa, which he named the Cape of Good Hope. In 1488, Dias embarked on a voyage commissioned by King John II of Portugal to find a sea route to India. During his expedition, he sailed along the western coast of Africa, rounding the Cape of Good Hope and reaching the Indian Ocean. Dias’ discovery of the Cape of Good Hope opened up a sea route that would later be used by explorers like Vasco da Gama to reach India and establish trade links.
