Kicking off the official first day of summer, Netflix today announced that the highly-anticipated fifth and final season of Outer Banks has begun production in Charleston, SC. Season 5 of the fan-favorite drama is slated to premiere on Netflix in 2026.
Following last season’s 18-month flash-forward showing Wes Genrette’s proposal for the Pogues to find Blackbeard’s treasure, Season 4 takes us back in time to the lead-up of that moment. After finding the gold at El Dorado, the Pogues return to the OBX and commit to having a “normal” life. They’ve built themselves a new safe haven, officially dubbed “Poguelandia 2.0”, where they live together and run a fairly successful bait, tackle, and charter tour shop. But after some financial setbacks, John B, Sarah, Kiara, JJ, Pope, and Cleo take Wes up on his offer, drawn back into the “G” game for a whole new adventure. But before they know it, they’re well in over their heads, with dangerous new enemies hot on their heels racing them to the treasure. Meanwhile, their problems are only growing, and they’re forced to question their past, present, and future – who they really are, has it all been worth it, and how much are they willing to risk?
Returning series regulars include: Chase Stokes, Madelyn Cline, Madison Bailey, Jonathan Daviss, Drew Starkey, Carlacia Grant, Austin North and Fiona Palomo. J. Anthony Crane and Cullen Moss will also return for season 5 and have been upped to series regulars.
Across its four seasons, Outer Banks has received nearly 200M views and has been featured on the Top 10 English TV List 25 times.
Creators / Executive Producers: Jonas Pate, Josh Pate, Shannon Burke
