Outer Banks has become one of the most popular teen dramas on Netflix over the years. The mystery series recently finished airing its fourth season, keeping viewers engaged with the story of the Pogues, a group of teens who seek a treasure to get rid of their financial troubles.
As the fourth season ended with surprising twists, fans can’t help but wonder if and when the show will return with new episodes on Netflix. Here is all you need to know about the renewal status and release date of Outer Banks Season 5.

Outer Banks fans would be happy to know that the show has already been renewed for a fifth season. Netflix announced the renewal ahead of Season 4 premiere in November 2024. The streaming platform also revealed that the show will end with Season 5. “From this beginning, we imagined a mystery that would lead to a five-season journey of adventure, treasure hunting, and friendship,” creators Josh Pate, Jonas Pate, and Shannon Burke said in a statement.
While Netflix still needs to set a premiere date for Outer Banks Season 5, we can make an educated guess about the release timeline based on the previous trend. There was a gap of 18 months between seasons 2 and 20 months between seasons 3 and 4. Since the fourth installment premiered in October 2024, season 5 is expected to release in the first half of 2026. Meanwhile, the creators have already started working on the script for the final season.

Creator Burke said this final quest will carry the Pogues through to the end, making it their biggest adventure yet. But there will also be a lot of emotion involved as the group mourns JJ’s tragic death.
This season will focus on the Pogues’ promise to get justice against JJ’s father, Chandler Groff. Meanwhile, John B and Sarah will deal with big changes in their lives as they prepare to become parents.
