Many players have claimed to have spotted sharks in the waters of [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. Most players claim that they are just mods, but others say that they are very rare. However these creatures do in fact, exist in the waters of Vice City on all three versions of the game ([[PlayStation 2]], [[Personal Computer|PC]] and [[Xbox]] versions).
Sharks appear in the ocean waters of [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. Like all marine animals in the game, these sharks are simply non-solid objects floating in the water and do not interact with any characters, vehicles, or objects. Sharks spawn randomly under ocean water around the city; there are no preferred locations of spawning. They do not kill and cannot be killed. The official manual of Vice City specifically describes shark attacks but shark attacks do not happen in the game at all.
 
{{quote|Shark attacks off Vice City happen a few times a year and there are more sharks out there than you would like to think - best advice: stay out of the water!<ref>Page 10 of the Tourist Guide, GTA Vice City's game manual</ref>}}
These sharks cannot be killed by the player and will not attack [[Tommy Vercetti]], even if the player jumps into the water next to it, although doing this will kill the player anyway by drowning. Its not easy to keep track of sharks as they swim out past the games barriers and they can easily disappear. The place you are most likely to find them, is south of Vice City or behind the [[Vercetti Estate]].  
A giant shark prop can be seen at the [[InterGlobal Studios]] on [[Prawn Island]].

A pre-release screenshot for GTA V shows a scuba diver swimming in the ocean with a shark that appears to be a composite of several real-life shark species, namely the Grey Nurse Shark (the pectoral and pelvic fins), Tiger Shark (nose shape and eyes), and the Great White Shark (plump body). It is currently unknown if there will be more than one species in the game, if they are capable of attacking the player, or if they can be killed.
