How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Rockstar's website describes the Leonida Keys as a tropical archipelago where the dress code is casual, the bars are loaded and the waters are among the most beautiful and dangerous in America.
The real place
The Florida Keys are a chain of coral islands strung along the Overseas Highway south-west of Miami. Wikipedia, Axios and Miami Herald coverage all treat the Leonida Keys as the game's version of them, and Rockstar has said its research covered the Keys.
Visiting
Drive the Overseas Highway (US 1) from the mainland and allow a full day to reach Key West with stops. Hurricane season runs from June to November.
