We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we've just learned of a new show cancellation. This teen series was loved by many, but unfortunately, it won't be returning for another season. Netflix has reportedly canceled the teen drama Surviving Summer. There will not be a Surviving Summer season 3 like many had hoped.

Are we shocked by this news? Honestly, not all. The second season was released on Netflix back in September 2023. That was over a year ago, and we hadn't heard a peep about the show's future until recently. The news came from one of the stars of the show. Liliana Bowrey, who played the role of Poppy in the teen series, shared a video on TikTok of her surfing back in December 2024. When a fan asked in the comments about the release of Surviving Summer season 3, Bowrey responded with the disappointing news that there wouldn't be one,...

Surviving Summer is an Australian teen drama series created by Joanna Werner and Josh Mapleston. The Netflix series follows Summer Torres, a rebellious teenage girl as she is expelled from her school in Brooklyn, New York, and moves to Australia where she quickly gets into surfing and becomes a part of a surfing group.

"Surviving Summer" season 2 was filmed in various beach locations in Australia, including Anglesea, Point Roadknight Beach, Bells Beach, Jan Juc Beach, as well as Byron Bay and Kingscliff in New South Wales. Anglesea served as the main setting for the fictional town of Shorehaven in the series, which is located on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria. The beaches chosen for filming were known for their surfing potential, emphasizing the show's central theme and providing a realistic backdrop for the characters' surfing adventures.

Netflix's Surviving Summer is an Australian production that takes place in Australia, so it only makes sense that the cast and crew filmed scenes for season 2 in the Land Down Under. The teen drama television series tells the story of a teenager with a bit of a rebellious streak who gets expelled from her prestigious private high school in New York City and, as a result,...

The characters in "Surviving Summer" are heavily involved in surfing, and the show's focus on the sport sets it apart from other teen dramas. While some of the surfing scenes are performed by professionals, most of the actors in the show do their own surfing, adding authenticity to the series. Lilliana Bowrey, who plays the character Poppy, is a professional surfer in real life, and her debut as an actor in the Netflix series has been a challenging but rewarding experience.

In Shorehaven everything revolves around surfing, but do the Surviving Summer actors really surf in real life? Unlike many teen dramas where the concept of the series is the backdrop for the melodrama happening in the community, surfing is the primary focus of the Netflix series. When Summer Torres (Sky Katz) arrives in the fictional Australian town and transitions from being a rough-and-tumble skateboarder from New York City into a surfing protégé,...

When it comes to filming back-to-back projects, one could do worse than swapping out Byron Bay for the Great Ocean Road.

Such was the scenario for young actress Savannah La Rain, who went from shooting Tyler Atkins’ debut feature Bosch and Rockit with Luke Hemsworth in the second half of 2020 to riding waves in regional Victoria earlier this year for upcoming Netflix young adult series Surviving Summer.

The 16-year-old told If the transition was a case of art imitating life.

“I loved how could just tell the vibe [with Surviving Summer] was so Australian with the surfing and the lingo,” she said.

“Having just come from Byron, where I had been experiencing the surf culture, it was very cool to see it in a television show and it felt very relatable.

“I could just tell it was something so special that I wanted to be a part of.”
