There are a total of 76 peyote locations in GTA Online. These are spread across the entirety of the City of Los Santos, as well as the surrounding countryside. You'll find a map charting all of the peyote plant locations below, but if you want to search for them yourself you'll want to explore until you find your controller start to vibrate, accompanied by a contextual animal sound.
GTA Online peyote plants are only seen fleetingly these days, as they are rare fauna that exclusively bloom across Los Santos and Blaine County for special events, which usually last for just a single week and can be spaced many months apart. For a bit of background information here, these plants were part of the Halloween celebrations in 2021 and 2022, then returned for Easter 2023 to turn players into cute bunny rabbits for egg-hunting season. After short-lived reappearances in November 2023 and January 2024, they returned during A Superyacht Life Week in May 2024 but were fittingly restricted to underwater locations only. We last sighted peyote plants in GTA Online during early April 2025, but once again they have now disappeared.
As of April 10, 2025, the GTA Online peyote plants have gone back into hiding and are unavailable, so you'll need to wait until the next special event to experience them again.
If you've already has a cactus snack at one of the GTA 5 peyote plant locations during the single-player campaign then you'll know what to expect, but if you're a newcomer then here's what you need to know – the GTA Online peyote plants are chock-full of hallucinogens, and consuming them when available in GTA Online will transform you into a wild animal!
Interestingly, not only can you use that animal's abilities to run amok and hound the innocent NPCs you encounter, but all of the other players in your session can also see you in your animal form and interact accordingly. When I turned into a deer, my reign of terror was only ended when I was knocked down by a fellow player's car, before they finished me off with a drive-by. Read on, and I'll show you where to find all of the GTA Online peyote plants locations, as long as they've been activated for an event.
GTA Online Peyote Plants locations
There are a total of 76 GTA Online peyote plants locations when they're available, spread across San Andreas and the surrounding ocean, which I've marked on the above map – you can click on it to view a larger version. Approach any of the areas shown on the map, and you'll feel your pad start to vibrate while you hear the sound of the animal that the peyote plant will turn you in to.
Follow the vibrations getting stronger until you discover the GTA Online peyote plant, which looks like a small green puck with some white flowers on top. When you're close enough, press right on the d-pad to begin your transformation into animal form. Each creature has its own controls, so pay attention to the tip that appears in the top left corner so you know how to use your capabilities. The hallucination will continue until your animal is killed, you enter water (or dry land if you are a sea creature), or you press right on the d-pad to quit, and you'll receive a considerable chunk of RP at the end. If you've had a notification that they're live in the game then get out there, chomp down those peyote plants, and start causing some mayhem!
