Overview

Del Perro Pier is one of Los Santos’s most recognisable landmarks: a brightly lit recreational pier extending into the Pacific from the Del Perro coastline. It combines a seaside amusement park, tourist facilities, food outlets, viewing areas, games, decorative shops and a large public promenade. The amusement park is branded Pleasure Pier, while the wider structure is generally called Del Perro Pier. That distinction matters because Pleasure Pier is a sub-area and attraction within the pier rather than a separate coastal district.

In Story Mode, the pier is more than scenery. It is the setting for a major sequence in Daddy’s Little Girl, a location used during The Third Way, a useful place to test vehicles and boats, and one of the more atmospheric sightseeing locations in Los Santos. It also contains a Letter Scrap and can be explored freely before or after its main story appearance.

The setting is a close recreation of California’s Santa Monica Pier, with Pleasure Pier drawing heavily on the real-life Pacific Park amusement park. The game reproduces the general arrangement, colourful rides, entrance plaza, pier office and tourist-facing architecture, but uses fictional businesses and names.
