Los Santos hides more than speeding cars and neon nights – behind every corner lies a secret, from forgotten collectibles to unmarked trails few players ever notice. This guide reveals the maps, mysteries, and hidden details that turn GTA V’s open world into something far deeper than it first appears.
This unofficial the Grand Theft Auto V – Maps and Secrets guide is a supplement for the main guide and for the mission description guide. It focuses mainly on presenting all of the collectibles available in the game and on their exact whereabouts. This guide, among others, includes information on how to find the hidden packages, spaceship parts, radioactive waste or the submarine parts. It also holds true for challenges – the guide informs of bridge locations that you can fly under or the sites for skydiving or stunts
Another important part of this guide is all sorts of juxtapositions. This guide, among others, includes complete lists of all available means of transport, weapons and stores (including their stock).
This is supplemented by very detailed maps , with precise whereabouts of collectibles and challenge completion sites marked.

Where to find all spaceship parts in GTA V
GTA V has 50 spaceship parts scattered across Los Santos, Los Santos County, and Blaine County, which Franklin can collect after meeting Omega in the Grand Senora Desert following the “Fame or Shame” mission. These glowing parts emit a humming sound when nearby and contribute to 100% completion, unlocking the “From Beyond the Stars” achievement and the Space Docker car. Use a helicopter for roof and high-access spots, and dive for underwater ones.
