Overview
Coastal Run is a fan idea for a straightforward timed delivery along the Vice Beach coastal highway, scenic by design. Vice Beach is a confirmed area; the mission is invented, and intentionally modest in scope.
The theory
It exists mostly as a counterweight to the wiki’s love of elaborate heist theories, a reminder that GTA also runs on small jobs. The giver and cargo are placeholders, not confirmed details.
Why people believe it
Timed deliveries are a GTA staple, so a beach-highway version is an easy bet. That makes the format plausible, not the specific mission real.

Trivia
“Not every mission needs to be a heist” is the unofficial motto attached to Coastal Run, a gentle bit of self-mockery aimed at the board’s own over-theorising.
