This was then picked up by the Town of Nag's Head, N.C., Facebook page, who threw a little shade at the Netflix show. Replying to a comment that this would be a long ferry ride, the page wrote,"And a bit bumpy, too, going over all of those buildings and cars and such."
In the comments for this, numerous NC residents pointed out some other geographical problems in the series. For example, one wrote:"It's a decent show, but took some liberties with geography. Kildare county/OBX and Figure Eight Island are not really the same place just as Swan Quarter and Chapel Hill are a bit different!"
'Outer Banks' is set in North Carolina, but residents of the state have pointed out some problems with its geographyAnother wrote:"While not a bad show if you place absolutely no baring on the actual OBX. The only thing lingo, or location or anything I picked up on was the locals calling the tourist tourons! Lol I so wanted it to be truly about my beloved OBX and well...
Speaking to The Wrap, showrunner Jonas Pate revealed that he was aware of this inconsistency. He explained:"The world of Outer Banks is an amalgam of both Carolina coasts... There's things like, you know, Chapel Hill is not on the water, when they take the tug boat over there. It's a fantasy geography based on a myriad of experiences all based on the Carolina coast. I just want to make it clear we're making no attempt at geographical reality.
LOL it’s a show, people. Any number of shows take liberties with their “location” shots where said show is supposed to be based. Heck... any of the Nick Sparks books/movies just for starters...
