Gil Gonzales de Avilla was the cousin of Panama's governor Pedro Arias de Ávila. In 1520 he entered the company with the governor and was granted permission to organize an expedition along the shores of Central America. His task was to find the Caribbean Sea and find the gold. The expedition set off on four ships under the pilot of Andreas Nini. She reached Nicoya Bay, where they received gold from the local commander and who received baptism. There they also learned about the rich land of the lake, under the leadership of Nicaragua. In 1523, in March, Gil Gonzales de Avilla, along with hundreds of soldiers, reached the lake, where on horseback on behalf of Emperor Charles V took over the whole country. New lands called Nicaragua, bore the leader and robbed all the gold. After these events, he had to flee from Indian troops in a short time.

At the same time, the sailors under Nina had explored the coasts of Nicaragua, El Salvador and Guatemala, reached Mexico, Tehuantepec, and then returned to Avilla.

In 1524, after receiving a governor's nomination, he arrived in Honduras. There, east of Yucatan, he founded a settlement near the mouth of the Montagua River to the Caribbean Sea, the later port of Borrios. In the same year, he fell into custody with Cristobal de Olid, who opposed Cortez. After joining de Avilla Cortes Olida's supporters were killed.
