This award-winning website from the University of Calgary's History Department is both impressive and extensive. It focuses on Portuguese and Spanish expeditions of the 15th and 16th centuries (the sitemap provides a good outline of topics). The site includes an extensive bibliography (print and online sources), many images, and several maps (be sure to check out the wonderful animated map of wind patterns and explorers' routes).
