Juan de Bermúdez (Template:Pron-en; Spanish pronunciation: [berˈmudes] or [berˈmudeθ]) was a Spanish navigator of the 16th century. His fame is chiefly due to his discovery of the Bermuda Islands in 1503, which are named for him.[1] Legatio Babylonica, published in 1511 by Peter Martyr d'Anghiera, lists "La Bermuda" among the Atlantic islands.

Juan de Bermúdez died in 1570.
