Christopher Columbus famously sailed from the port of Palos de la Frontera, in southern Spain across the ocean blue in a fleet of three ships: one ship was owned by Juan Niño, and was named the Santa Clara, but became known by its nickname, the Nina , the second ship was owned by Cristóbal Quintero, and was named the Pinta and the third, Santa Maria de Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles de Porciuncula.
