• “Survival on Del Perro Pier” (Survival): On this Beachfront attraction you will take on some relentless enemies.
• “Grass Route II” (Race): This race begins from the North bank of the Zancudo River all the way through the wetlands and then onto the beach in North Chumash.

These vehicles are available at no cost! The land-based vehicles are accessible from the southernsanandreassuperautos.com Web site, and the Speeder Speedboat is available at docktease.com on your in-game phone.

Weapons

Beach Bum will include two new free weapons, and they will both be added to the three characters’ inventory in Story Mode. 

• SNS Pistol: This is a compact and deadly pistol. 
• Broken Bottle: This is a hand-to-hand combat weapon, which is great for close encounters. 

There were some comments from GTA fans saying that they are disappointed that these were the only free weapons available in the update. For instance, someone commented, “Just a broken bottle and SNS Pistol?”
