GTA 6 Port Gellhorn: Leonida's 'forgotten coast', explained
Port Gellhorn is GTA 6's faded vacation town of cheap motels, closed attractions and a seedier new economy. Here's everything Rockstar has said and shown of it: its description, six screenshots and the places named.

Port Gellhorn is Grand Theft Auto VI's faded vacation town, one of the six regions Rockstar Games has named in Leonida. The tourists are gone, and Rockstar's description makes clear what replaced them. Here's everything Rockstar has said and shown of Port Gellhorn, from its own description to the six official screenshots and the places named so far.
What Rockstar says
Rockstar heads its page for the region "Live Hard," and calls Port Gellhorn "Leonida's forgotten coast." Its description: "Cheap motels, shut-down attractions, and empty strip malls won't bring the tourists back, but there's a new economy in this once-popular vacation spot. It's fueled by malt liquor, painkillers, and truck stop energy drinks. Jump on a dirt bike and hold onto your wallet."
Rockstar's postcard for the region shows a low-rise town at dusk, with a water tower, streetlights and a train passing through.
What the six screenshots show
Rockstar released six screenshots of Port Gellhorn. In order:
- The Starlet Motel at night, its vacancy sign lit.
- Two men in a room full of grow lights, one resting his hands on a shovel and the other holding a baseball bat on his shoulder.
- A woman leaning into a car window to hand a package to a man in the back seat.
- The parking lot of the Delights Cabaret at night, with people lingering outside and someone pushing a shopping cart under the sign.
- A bonfire party, with a couple flirting against the hood of a truck.
- The town at sunset: low houses and trailers, palm trees and a water tower in the haze.

Places named in Port Gellhorn
- The Starlet Motel, whose sign lights up the first screenshot. Cheap motels are the first thing Rockstar's description mentions.
- The Delights Cabaret, a strip club with "Girls" in neon on both sides of its sign. The marquee under it reads "New girls new food, open all night, hiring dancers." Strip clubs are part of GTA 6, but Rockstar hasn't said whether you can go into this one.
Both names are printed in Rockstar's own screenshots; Rockstar hasn't described either place in text.

Getting around, and the radio
Rockstar's own tip for the region is to "jump on a dirt bike," and its postcard shows a train running through town. GTA 6 has working bus and train networks, Edge reports, though Rockstar hasn't said where the lines run.
On the radio, Rockstar says Back Country Radio, GTA 6's country station, has hosts MW and Delta Dawne playing "renegade country music" to the Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn and beyond.
