Outer Banks is set to return in 2024, but when exactly does it come out on Netflix? Here's what we know.

Pogues, it's almost time for Outer Banks season 4 – but when does it actually come out on Netflix?

It's been quite a while since we've seen John B, Sarah Cameron, JJ, Kie, Pope and Cleo on our screens. Outer Banks season 3 came out in February 2023, and fans are still waiting to see what happens next.

OBX season 4 was delayed due to the writers and actors strikes that took place in the middle of 2023, but the good news is that we now officially have a release date! Outer Banks season 4 will be dropping in two parts on October 10th and November 7. Both parts will have five episodes each.

Here's everything we know about when fans can expect to see Outer Banks season 4 hit Netflix.

When does Outer Banks return?

When is season 4 of Outer Banks coming out?

Outer Banks season 4 will be released in two parts – with Part 1 dropping on October 10th and Part 2 following on November 7th.

Each part will have five episodes, and will see the Pogues back in action to try and uncover a brand new treasure hunt for Blackbeard's gold. The season's plot was set up in the final scene of season 3.

The announcement of the release date has been a long time coming for OBX fans... Madison Bailey recently commented on one of Chase Stokes' TikTok videos in which he asked fans to stop asking him about the release date because he can't say anything about it. In response to that TikTok, Madison then teased: "The gag is that we do know the date".

And now so do we!

What is Outer Banks season 4 about?

18 months after the events of season 3 and the discovery of the gold in El Dorado, the Pogues – who are now hometown heroes – find themselves on the verge of a brand new hunt after being approached by a man who wants them to help find another missing treasure.

Season 4 will see the Pogues on the hunt for notorious pirate Blackbeard's gold. Blackbeard (who was a real pirate) is said to have spent a lot of time near the Outer Banks, so it's likely that most of season 4 will stay rooted in the OBX.

Several new characters have already been revealed, which means there's plenty of new allies and antagonists that'll play key roles in the Pogue's next adventure.

Other than that, details have been kept underwraps. The first trailer teases small snippets of what fans can expect but for the most part, it looks like we'll have to wait and see what happens when Outer Banks season 4 finally drops on Netflix.

Outer Banks season 4 trailer: What happens next?

The first official teaser trailer for season 4 opens with a bit of classic John B narration as he says: "We finally did it. We finally found the gold. That's where the story should've ended, but really, it was just the beginning."

Season 4, which looks to be set back in the OBX, sees the Pogues open up their own surf shop, alongside JJ's new Surf and Scuba tour business. That scuba equipment comes in handy pretty fast as JJ and Kie end up diving into the ocean to look for the gold.

As always there's plenty of high octane drama, fights, romance and more.
