    In what present day country did Christopher Columbus first set foot on the North American mainland?

    Question #42550. Asked by RaeRae55.

    McGruff

    Columbus did not land on the mainland of North America during any of his voyages. The place of the first Caribbean landfall on October 12, 1492 was most likely modern day San Salvador, or Watling Island, in the Bahamas.
