A Spanish fleet of 21 ships (according to the Dutch) or 10 ships (according to the Spanish), including 10 galleons, was led by Don Juan Álvarez de Ávila. The Spanish flagship ''San Augustin'' (St Augustine) was commanded by Don Juan's son. Other ships were ''Nuestra Señora de la Vega'' (Our Lady of Vega) and ''Madre de Dios'' (Mother of God). The Spanish fleet was covered by a fortress, although the Dutch fleet was out of range of its guns at all times and they could not intervene in the battle .〔
