The next season of ‘Outer Banks’ is expected to conclude production in August 2022.
According to What’s On Netflix, Outer Banks Season 3 will conclude shooting on Aug. 19, 2022. Due to the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, there may be some filming delays, like with season 2. However, for the time being, that is the projected filming timeline.

Some fans on Reddit believe Netflix will release the next season in August due to an error in the production schedule. “It could easily be released in mid-to-late-August,” they said in a statement, assuming shooting concludes in May or June. At the time of publishing, no specific filming schedule had been announced.
The cast of ‘Outer Banks’ has been sighted going to the set.
