Live Hard
This is Leonida’s forgotten coast.
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.
Port Gellhorn — city in Grand Theft Auto VI, located in Kelly County in the western part of Leonida. It occupies an extensive coastal area with a mix of commercial and industrial infrastructure, interspersed with dense forests, open meadows, and hilly terrain.
Notable locations include a pawn shop, a liquor store, the Crossroad Park Minimall, the Bocamar Bridge, the Delights strip club, and the seaport.
The primary inspiration for Port Gellhorn is Panama City in Florida, as well as the cities of Bay County: Parker, Callaway and Springfield. The seaport is apparently inspired by the Port Tampa Bay in Tampa.
The city's name is a reference to American writer and journalist Martha Gellhorn. The element "Port" in the name is likely borrowed from the city of Port Charlotte.
