GTA 6 Real-Life Locations: Every Miami Spot in Vice City
If you've ever driven down Ocean Drive, you've basically already seen Vice City. Here's every confirmed real-world location behind Rockstar's Florida.
Last updated
GTA 6's Vice City is one of the most direct real-world recreations Rockstar has ever built. Ocean Drive becomes Ocean Beach, Brickell becomes Downtown Vice City, Wynwood becomes Stockyard, and Little Havana becomes Little Cuba — and that's before you get to specific hotels and buildings lifted almost pixel-for-pixel from Miami Beach.
Vice City's Beachfront
Ocean Drive is the backbone of Ocean Beach in-game, and Rockstar didn't stop at the general vibe. The real Hotel Breakwater at 940 Ocean Drive becomes "Hotel Boardwalk," and the Hotel Victor at 1144 Ocean Drive is reborn as "Hotel Dixon." A luxury penthouse and pool shown in the very first trailer matches a real penthouse at the top of Tresor Tower in Miami Beach. South Beach itself — sunbathing, roller-skaters, main-character energy — is expected to show up as a setting for beach parties and street life.
Downtown & the Neighborhoods
Brickell's glass towers become Downtown Vice City's skyline. Wynwood's mural-and-warehouse arts district is reflected in Stockyard. And Little Havana becomes Little Cuba, likely drawing on real Calle Ocho landmarks like Domino Park and Maximo Gomez Park for its street-level detail. Together, these neighborhoods give Vice City the kind of district-to-district texture Rockstar usually reserves for its biggest cities.
Beyond the City
The real Florida doesn't stop at Miami, and neither does Leonida. The Everglades National Park, a wildlife reserve west of the city, becomes Grassrivers — swamps, mangroves and slow-moving water. The real Florida Keys become the Leonida Keys, a bridge-connected island chain built for boats. For the full regional breakdown, see the GTA 6 map guide, or Rockstar's own footage on the official GTA VI site.
