Where to Watch The Summer I Turned Pretty in the — The Complete Guide

The Summer I Turned Pretty, based on Jenny Han's beloved YA trilogy, has built an enormous following in the USA since its Amazon Prime Video debut. The romance drama set around a beach house, two brothers and a love triangle spanning years has resonated deeply with US audiences. Here is your guide to watching all three seasons: where they stream, how to get them on your TV, and the order to watch in.

What Is The Summer I Turned Pretty About?

The show follows Belly Conklin (Lola Tung), who has spent every summer at Cousins Beach with her family and their close friends the Fishers, including brothers Conrad and Jeremiah. As Belly grows older, the childhood friendships become complicated by romantic feelings, family secrets and the encroachment of adult life.

The series is warm, emotionally intelligent and, particularly from Season 2 onwards, genuinely surprising in how it handles grief and the complexity of young relationships.

Where to Watch The Summer I Turned Pretty in the USA

The Summer I Turned Pretty is an Amazon Prime Video exclusive. All three seasons are available on Amazon Prime Video with an active Prime or Prime Video membership; check Amazon's site for the current price.

It is not available on Netflix, Disney+ or other streaming platforms. Amazon holds the rights as the show's home service.

How to Watch It on Your TV, Phone or Laptop

Install the Prime Video app on the device you want to watch on and sign in with your Amazon account; your membership and watch progress follow you across devices.

• Fire TV and Firestick: Prime Video is built in. Search the show title with the voice remote and the series page opens directly.
• Smart TVs, Roku and Apple TV: install Prime Video from the TV's app store, then sign in with the code shown on screen at amazon.com/mytv on your phone or computer.
• Phones and tablets: the Prime Video app lets you download episodes for offline viewing, which is useful for flights or a beach trip with weak signal.
• Laptop: watch in a browser at the Prime Video website, no app needed.

If you share the account, set up a separate Prime Video profile so your episode progress is not overwritten by someone else's binge.

Season Guide: What to Expect

• Season 1 (7 episodes): Establishes the love triangle and Cousins Beach world. Introduces the central characters and their summer dynamic. Perfect if you loved Jenny Han's To All the Boys trilogy.
• Season 2 (8 episodes): Significantly darker in tone: Susannah's illness becomes central, and the show reveals unexpected emotional depth. The better of the first two seasons.
• Season 3: The concluding season resolves the central love triangle and explores what life after Cousins Beach looks like for all the characters.

What Order Should You Watch In?

Watch the seasons in release order, from Season 1 to Season 3. The story is a single continuous arc across Belly's summers, and Season 2 in particular depends on events from the end of Season 1.

If you are coming from the books, the three seasons broadly follow Jenny Han's three novels, The Summer I Turned Pretty, It's Not Summer Without You and We'll Always Have Summer, though the show changes and expands storylines. Readers should expect some surprises, and new viewers can watch without reading first.

A useful habit with a romance drama like this one: turn off autoplay previews in the Prime Video settings, and avoid the episode thumbnails and cast interviews until you have finished a season, as both can give away which way the triangle is leaning.

Prime Video Settings Worth Changing Before You Binge

Four settings make a long rewatch easier: subtitles, autoplay, download quality and profiles. Each takes a minute to change and saves frustration later.

• Subtitles and audio: while an episode plays, open the speech-bubble menu to turn on subtitles or change the audio language. The choice is remembered for the rest of the series.
• Autoplay: in the app settings you can turn off autoplay of the next episode if you would rather decide yourself, or turn off autoplay trailers on the home screen to avoid spoilers.
• Download quality: on phones, choose a lower download quality to fit more episodes into your storage before a trip, and a higher one if you will watch on a tablet.
• Profiles and PINs: give each viewer their own profile so the Continue Watching row stays accurate, and set a purchase PIN if children use the same account.

Who Is the Show For?

The show is for viewers who enjoy slow-burn romance, family drama and coming-of-age stories more than plot twists or action. It is told through Belly's eyes, so the emotional stakes, first love, friendship and loss, drive every episode.

Fans of Jenny Han's To All the Boys films will recognise the tone, and viewers who like ensemble family stories set in one beloved place will find Cousins Beach does the same job. If you prefer faster-paced teen drama, start with Season 2, where the stakes rise, only after watching Season 1, because the payoff depends on it.

Watching From Outside the USA

Prime Video operates in many countries, but its catalogue differs by region, so search the show title in your local Prime Video app to confirm it is there. Your Amazon account's country settings determine which catalogue you see.

If an episode will not play, the most common causes are a VPN or proxy that makes Prime Video think you are elsewhere, an app that needs updating, or a device limit on the account. Turn off the VPN, update the app, and sign out of devices you no longer use under your Amazon account's registered devices settings.
