Battle of Albrolhos
The naval Battle of the Albrolhos took place on 12 September 1631〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=San Antonio (+1631) )〕 off the coast of Bahía, Brazil, during the Eighty Years' War. A joint Spanish-Portuguese fleet under Admiral Oquendo defeated the Dutch after a six hour naval battle.〔Wilson, p. 662〕
==Background==
On 5 May 1631 Spanish Admiral Oquendo left Lisbon with a fleet of about 20 men-of-war. He carried reinforcements to Paraíba, Pernambuco and Bahia. On his way back to Portugal, he was to convoy ships loaded with sugar. So as to allow the Dutch extra time to get ready, he headed first for Bahia. Once the Dutch learned of his coming, their fleet in Pernambuco, led by admiral Adrian Pater, sailed to intercept the Spanish convoy. Despite Pater had 33 ships at Pernambuco, he left 17 in port as he considered only 8 of Oquendo’s to be battleworthy.〔Guthrie, William P.: ''(Naval actions of the Thirty Years' War )''. The Mariner's mirror, 87:3, 2010, p. 265.〕 Finally, on September 12, the two fleets met around the cays.
