*Warning: Season 3 spoilers ahead*

Netflix is preparing to release the second half of Outer Banks season four, and it’s safe to say that fans are beyond excited.

Co-creators Jonas Pate, Josh Pate and Shannon Burke released a joint statement back in 2023 announcing that Outer Banks had been renewed for season four. “Seeing Poguelandia come to life was nothing short of spectacular,” it read, per Variety. “The Pogues are enjoying an adventure of a lifetime and we now get to map out more twists and turns as the joyride continues into season 4 of Outer Banks. Thank you to Netflix, our cast and the amazing fans who helped to make this happen.”

After that wild part one finale, I’m anxious to see what's next for the gang. But until then, here's a rundown of everything I know about part two of Outer Banks season four.

1. What Is Outer Banks Season 4 About?

At the end of season three, the Pogues receive a captain's log that once belonged to Blackbeard, a famous pirate. John B agrees to investigate the clue, which suggests that season four will see the group embark on yet another drama-filled quest for Blackbeard's treasure.

The first half of Outer Banks season four picks up right where the previous installment ends, but instead of diving right into the log, the first episode details all the moments that led to the Pogues agreeing to meet with Wes. Because at first, they are determined to put their treasure hunting days behind them so they can pursue other endeavors—like their new business (aka Poguelandia 2.0). 

In my honest review of part one, I wrote, “With three successful seasons under its belt, there was a chance that Outer Banks season four would seem redundant because there are only so many ways the Pogues can hunt for treasure before the storyline feels forced. Luckily, the new installment introduces an entirely new adventure that appears far more dark and creepy than previous seasons.”

2. Who Is in the Outer Banks Season 4 Cast?

Both John B (Chase Stokes) and Sarah (Madelyn Cline) will return. The rest of the main cast—including Madison Bailey (Kiara), Carlacia Grant (Cleo), Rudy Pankow (JJ) and Jonathan Daviss (Pope)—will also reprise their roles in Outer Banks season four.

The new season will also feature a few newcomers, including J. Anthony Crane (Billions), Pollyanna McIntosh (The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live), Brianna Brown (Dynasty), Rigo Sanchez (Animal Kingdom) and Mia Challis (Clickbait).

Grant shared some predictions regarding her character’s journey in season four. She told Cosmopolitan, "I have some theories. I don't want to ruin them, but I would love to see Cleo's backstory. Like if a person came back from Cleo's past to really explain some of her mannerisms. It's Outer Banks. Her mom died, her dad left, but any of these people could appear somehow."

3. When Does Outer Banks Season 4 Premiere?

The first half of Outer Banks season four hit Netflix on October 10, and the second half is scheduled to premiere on November 7.

The cast wrapped filming the new season back in June 2024. Stokes confirmed the news in a video on Instagram, where he said: “Hey everybody, we just wrapped season four. We did it!”

4. Is There a Trailer for Season 4, Part 2? 

The new trailer confirms that everything the Pogues have built is on the line. Not only are they homeless, but they are also being hunted by the people they’ve wronged. The question is: How far are they willing to go to claim what’s theirs?

When they receive a tip about the crown’s location, the group heads to Morocco for one last adventure. “We’re gonna figure this out,” John B says in the clip. “We always do.”

In an exclusive interview with PureWow, Stokes revealed why season four is way different than previous installments. “[Season 4] is a return to the characters in a way that we have ventured a little bit away from in the last two seasons,” he told PureWow. “[They got to do] the big giant treasure hunting, which is great and it's fun but I think what people really love about the show is the jib-jabby nature of these characters and them getting into these personal situations. So I think they'll really enjoy getting to spend more time with their favorite characters on the show.”

5. Is Outer Banks Returning for Season Five?

As of September 2024, Netflix hasn’t announced a fifth season for Outer Banks. However, that could change in the future because co-creator Josh Pate previously revealed that there’s more story to tell. 

“I don’t know if I could put a real number on it right now — how long it takes to get to that ending might expand, but we now know the shape of the end of the story,” he told Entertainment Weekly. “We’re going to take it as long as we can, for sure.” Music to my ears.
