Sighting · Official Rockstar screenshots

Watson Bay is a named town in Leonida's Grassrivers region, the game's Everglades-inspired wetland. Its name appears on a water tower visible in official Rockstar GTA 6 screenshots. The community has compared its geography and feel to Cedar Key, Florida, a small coastal town at the edge of the real Everglades, though Rockstar has not named a specific real-world source.

The clearest confirmation of what Watson Bay contains comes from the GTA 6 Ultimate Edition materials. The Vapid Dominator Buggy '67, one of the edition's bonus vehicles, is paired with the Paradise Garage in Watson Bay as its storage property, and Rockstar's description of that garage adds a weapon locker and a place to deposit stolen goods to be fenced. That makes it one of the first named properties confirmed outside Vice City. What story missions, businesses, or characters are set in Watson Bay is unconfirmed until launch.
