‘Outer Banks’ Wasn’t Even Filmed in the OBX & Now We Feel Like Everything’s a Lie

Netflix, Outer Banks, Outer Banks of the United States

Netflix’s high schooler show Outer Banks is a sea darling’s heaven. So where was Netflix’s Outer Banks recorded? Shock, shock, the 10-scene arrangement didn’t really film in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, however some place close by.

For the individuals who don’t have the foggiest idea, Outer Banks, which debuted on Netflix on April 15, focuses on a high school kid named John Booker Routeledge (John B., for short) and his companions called the Pogues. The show follows John B. what’s more, the Pogues as they explore the vanishing of his dad, who disappeared adrift in the Outer Banks of North Carolina a year prior to the occasions of the arrangement. We won’t ruin the remainder of the show for you, yet Outer Banks is brimming with secret, dramatization and hot high schooler sentiment. (A trifecta!)

Where Is Outer Banks Set?

In spite of the fact that it didn’t film there, Outer Banks is set in the Outer Banks of the United States, a 200-mile-long piece of hindrance islands and separates the shoreline of North Carolina and southeastern Virginia. The region, which has become a famous vacationer goal for its open beachfront, covers the majority of the North Carolina coastline that isolates the Currituck Sound, Albemarle Sound, and Pamlico Sound from the Atlantic Ocean.

Where Was Outer Banks Filmed?

The unavoidable issue: Where was Outer Banks recorded in the event that it wasn’t in the OBX? All things considered, the arrangement really shot in the palmetto-stuffed territory of Charleston, South Carolina, so it wasn’t recorded in a similar state. As substantiated by OBX Today, the shooting area has prompted some analysis from Outer Banks local people who don’t think the arrangement is real to the region.

Why Couldn’t the Show Film in the Outer Banks?

There’s an explanation that it wasn’t shot in the genuine OBX however. While co-maker Jons Pate has said that he needed to film the arrangement in North Carolina, the Wilmington Star News announced that Netflix decided not to film in Wilmington, a city close to the genuine Outer Banks, on account of North Carolina’s 2016 enemy of LGBTQ House Bill 2 enactment, known as “the washroom law,” that expresses that transgender people must utilize bathrooms that coordinate their doled out sex during childbirth. In spite of the fact that the show didn’t film in Wilmington, Pate told the Wilmington Star News that the arrangement was as yet ready to recruit many team individuals who headed out to Charleston to help with the creation.

At the point when we composed [Outer Banks], it was 100 percent Wilmington in our minds. We needed to film it here. Be that as it may, Netflix settled on the correct choice to demand inclusivity and we totally concur with them,” he said.

How Accurate Is Outer Banks?

In a meeting with Esquire, Brent Nultemeir, a notable surfer from the OBX, clarified that the show wasn’t geologically precise for some scenes. In particular, he highlighted a scene where the Pogues take a ship for Chapel Hill, which is land-secured reality. “They exhibit an a beacon that was not even from our region by any means,” he said. “A portion of the homes and a portion of the vegetation isn’t right, as well. Further south there’s much more palm trees. We don’t have that many palm trees here on the Outer Banks. Some of it seemed to be comparative, yet when you live here, in the absolute first scene you’re similar to, ‘Gracious, that is not here.'”

All things considered, Pate revealed to The Wrap that the show is really a mix of the two Carolinas’ coasts, so the aim might not have been to be topographically exact. “The universe of Outer Banks is an amalgam of both Carolina coasts,” he said. “It’s a dream geology dependent on a horde of encounters all dependent on the Carolina coast. I simply need to make it understood we’re taking a stab at geological reality.”
