Columbus encountered the Bahamas, Cuba and Hispaniola on his first voyage. He only saw bits of South America and North America on later voyages.

"Although the Bahamas is situated in the Caribbean region of North America, it is located in the Atlantic ocean and not the Caribbean Sea. "

The Bahamas are in North America, as are Cuba and Hispanola. They're just not part of the continent.
