Leonida Keys.

The Leonida Keys form GTA 6’s tropical island region. Rockstar pairs a relaxed public image of casual dress and busy bars with a warning about the surrounding waters. The Keys are a place of boats and leisure, and also the region where Jason works for drug runners and Brian keeps up a smuggling business.

Rockstar’s gallery shows a bridge connecting two islands beneath a seaplane. Other scenes show people gathered on boats with jet skis nearby.

The underwater gallery scene shows two scuba divers among coral, fish, an eel and a sea turtle. Scuba diving is part of the Keys’ coastal setting.

The boat-party image includes an inflatable flamingo, which is a prop rather than a living bird. An iguana in a street scene adds to the region’s animal life.

Brian’s boat yard is part of an active drug-running operation, and Jason is tied to it through both work and accommodation. That gives the Keys an economy beyond tourism. Rockstar’s Rob Nelson has said the story begins in the Keys, where Jason’s first home is.

The official beach-bar image shows a social space, with patrons on the porch, at the picnic tables and around the entrance. The Rusty Anchor is one of the region’s dive bars.
