Leonida Keys

Confirmed by Rockstar

A chain of tropical islands off the coast, the game version of the Florida Keys. It is part of the state of Leonida in GTA 6, and it is inspired by The Florida Keys.

The Leonida Keys are a string of small islands trailing off the southern coast of the state. Rockstar presents them as a holiday-postcard setting: clear water, boats, waterfront homes, and a relaxed island pace that contrasts with the city.

They give the map a distinct boating and coastal layer, and they are one of the six regions Rockstar has named directly.

Inspired by The Florida Keys. Leonida is a fictional Florida, so this is a reimagined version of a real place, not a one-to-one copy. See where it sits on the interactive map.
