Magellan didn't make it the whole way himself, but his ships sailed down the east coast of South America and through the Strait of Magellan (named after him), through the Pacific, the Marianas and Guam, and on to the Philippines, which is where Magellan died.
Elcano, in the only ship that survived the entire voyage, traded in the Spice Islands (Maluku), went through the Indian ocean, came around the cape of Good Hope, and then west and north back to Spain. The ship that tried to go back through the Pacific route was captured and wrecked.

Ferdinand Magellan's primary destination was to find a westward route to the Spice Islands (the Moluccas) in present-day Indonesia. He aimed to establish a more direct trade route for valuable spices like cloves and nutmeg, which were highly sought after in Europe. Magellan's expedition ultimately succeeded in circumnavigating the globe, although he did not survive the journey himself.
Ferdinand Magellan tried to circle the globe but died along the way. Other explorers established the trade route.
Ferdinand Magellan's primary goal was to find a westward route to the Spice Islands (the Moluccas) in order to establish a direct trade route to the lucrative spice trade. He succeeded in reaching the Philippines and the Spice Islands, but he did not complete the journey himself as he was killed in the Philippines in 1521. Ultimately, his expedition, which continued under the command of Juan Sebastián Elcano, became the first to circumnavigate the globe, achieving the broader goal of demonstrating the possibility of global maritime navigation, even if Magellan did not survive to see it.

All the explorers of his time were looking for a water route to Asia, and so it was with him.
The 1519-1522 expedition led by Ferdinand Magellan was the first to circumnavigate the globe, and thus the first to discover the sea route around Cape Horn, at the tip of South America.
Ferdinand Magellan discovered a sea route from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, through what is now known as the Strait of Magellan. He led the first expedition to circumnavigate the globe, although he did not complete it himself.
