Portugal's slow progress down the west coast of Africa in search for a route to the east finally came to fruition with Vasco da Gama (1469 - 1524). He followed Bartolomeu Dias' route to the Cape of Good Hope in [1497] to 1498 and continue sailing into unknown waters along the eastern coast of the African continent. He eventually located a route to India, but had to contend with Arab strongholds.

With four vessels, he rounded the Cape of Good Hope, passed the easternmost point reached by Bartolomeu Dias in 1488, continued up the east coast of Africa to Malindi, and sailed across the Indian Ocean to Calicut. This voyage opened up a way for Europe to reach the wealth of the Indies, and out of it grew the Portuguese Empire.
