João da Gama (c. 1540 – after 1591) was a Portuguese explorer and colonial administrator in the Far East in the last quarter of the 16th century. He was the grandson of Vasco da Gama. João da Gama sailed from Macau to northeast and rounded Japan by north. He crossed the Pacific Ocean at the northernmost latitudes taken until then by Europeans. Forced by the circumstances of his voyage, he became also a circumnavigator (one of the first to do it eastwards). The lands northeast of Japan which João da Gama discovered were the target of legend and speculation in the centuries that followed, inspiring its search by European powers.

(en) João da Gama (vers 1540 - après 1591) était un explorateur portugais et un administrateur colonial en Extrême-Orient dans le dernier quart du XVIe siècle. Il était le petit-fils de Vasco da Gama. João da Gama a navigué de Macao au nord-est et a contourné le Japon par le nord. Il a traversé l'océan Pacifique aux latitudes les plus septentrionales prises jusqu'alors par les Européens. Forcé par les circonstances de son voyage, il effectue une circumnavigation autour de la Terre (l'un des premiers à le faire vers l'est). Les terres au nord-est du Japon que João da Gama a découvertes ont été la cible de légendes et de spéculations dans les siècles qui ont suivi, inspirant la recherche chez les puissances européennes. (fr) João da Gama (c. 1540 – depois de 1591) foi um explorador e administrador colonial português no Extremo Oriente no último quartel do século XVI. Era neto de Vasco da Gama. João da Gama partiu de Macau para nordeste e contornou o Japão pelo norte, cruzou o Oceano Pacífico nas latitudes mais ao norte tomadas até então pelos europeus. Forçado pelas circunstâncias de sua viagem, tornou-se também um circum-navegador (um dos primeiros a fazê-lo para o leste). As terras a nordeste do Japão que João da Gama descobriu foram alvo de lendas e especulações nos séculos que se seguiram, inspirando a sua procura pelas potências europeias. (pt)
