There are three new and updated aspects coming in with the Beach Bum Pack. The first is that there will be new jobs, all of which will have the beach theme in keeping with the DLC's main vibe.
There are five overall: the Grass Route II for racing will be a sequel, putting you on an off-road adventure from Zancudo River all the way to North Chumash; Survival on Del Perro Pier will put your survival skills to the test as you ride the waves of enemies instead of sea waves; View of Vespucci will send you leaping down almost 3,000 feet into Vespucci Beach with nothing but a parachute; Paleto Beach is the team deathmatch that will be open for four to eight players; and Sundae Driving, a motorbike race where you need to beat the rest.
New vehicles are also coming out with the GTA 5 Online DLC, and all of these are ready-to-ride on the beach vehicles. There are a total of four, namely the BF Bifta dune buggy, the Canis Kalahari off-road truck, the Speeder speedboat, and the Bravado Paradise beach camper van.

Land vehicles can be obtained via southernsanandreassuperautos.com while the Speeder can be availed at docktease.com via the in-game phone. It can also be attained in Story Mode for all three characters, just drop by your garage and the Marina property for the vehicles.
Two new weapons can also be obtained for your arsenal, the SNS Pistol and the Broken Bottle. Ammu-Nation has both of the weapons in GTA Online, and you can expect them to be added to the three characters' inventory when playing Story Mode.
As a bonus, new customisation options will also be made available, so your GTA 5 Online character will be more fashionable. You can enjoy new beach shorts styles, tattoos, surfer looks, and the wind-swept hairdos fitting of the common vacationer.
