* ViceCity: While not as bad as the [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughIndustrialAreaDistrict Industrial Area]], it's pretty obvious that law hasn't reached many parts of this district. Street racing, drug dealing, prostitution, black markets, illegal parties, and of course murder are abundant, and even after you leave Ocean Shore, it's clear that people here will continue living the good but illegal life they've always wanted.

*NoPlotNoProblem: Notable for being the first and only district in ''VideoGame/CriminalCase'' that lacks any sort of StoryArc or plot. Even the [[Recap/CriminalCaseGrimsboroughHistoricalCenterDistrict Historical Center]], whose cases were mostly self-contained, still dealt with the ChekhovsGun that was the Dog Pageant Contest, something that Ocean Shore lacks.

'''Ocean Shore''' is the first district investigated in ''VideoGame/CriminalCasePacificBay''.

Primarily based on Malibu Beach, Ocean Shore is an urban setting characterized for its colorful beaches, touristic spots, and wild nightlife. The district mainly deals with the player adjusting themselves to their new life in Pacific Bay, lacking any sort of storyline and instead focusing on meeting your new teammates on the Pacific Bay Police Department as you solve some run-of-the-mill crimes in the area.
