Interior scenes for the show were filmed at the Seven Network's Sydney studios in Epping until 2010. Following the closure of these studios in early 2010, the interiors are now filmed at the Australian Technology Park in Redfern. The Jackeroo Ranch estate in Kenthurst had been used for the exterior sets of the Summer Bay House and Caravan Park since 1988. A replica of the Summer Bay House was rebuilt in its original location at the Kenthurst estate several years later, with the exception of a grey roof instead of a red one. The caravan park set moved back to the estate after the house was rebuilt, and both exterior sets made their on-screen returns in 2015. The Summer Bay House is the only house to still be seen on screen since the pilot episode.

Palm Beach is about an hour and a half’s drive from Sydney, and along the way, your driver-guide will pepper you with info about life in Sydney, Home and Away’s history and legacy, and reveal a few insider secrets too. In the United States, Home and Away was first shown briefly on the FX cable network from the channel's launch on 1 June 1994 to February 1995. Over two decades later, the show began streaming on the subscription service Hulu on 2 March 2015, beginning with the 2015 season. The service no longer receives new episodes, although the complete twenty-eighth season is currently available. Home and Away is filmed at the Australian Technology Park in Eveleigh, Sydney.

Thanks to an article on australia.com, we have the scoop on the real life Summer Bay. “Palm Beach, or ‘Palmy’ as it’s called by locals, lies at the end of a long peninsula, fringed by surf on one side and tranquil Pittwater on the other. Its golden sands and clear waters have inspired Sydney’s wealthy to build holiday houses on its leafy hills.

April 2019 saw a slight rise in the viewing figures; the first episode of the month drew in 740,000 viewers and ranked 9th for that night. From 2013 until 2017, Home and Away used a series of five-second opening titles, which changed every week. The various titles mostly featured scenes of bikini-clad women and shirtless men with surfboards at the beach. In 2018, a new series of eight-second titles were introduced along with the return of the show's theme song.

The Fletchers bought the Summer Bay Caravan Park and moved into the Summer Bay House. To string several Home and Away locations together, join a specialist tour from Sydney. Perhaps even more famous, however, is the Summer Bay Surf Club. Any Home and Away fans wanting to get a photo outside the famous surf club should head to Palm Beach.

Other fictional towns mentioned and sometimes seen in Home and Away are Mangrove River and Yabbie Creek. After the Seven Network cancelled their soap opera Neighbours on 12 July 1985 due to low ratings, rival Network 10 picked it up and turned it into a success. A couple of years later, Seven's head of drama, Alan Bateman, became desperate to get back into the soap market and began to work out how to launch another soap that was not a copy of Neighbours. While on a trip to Kangaroo Point, New South Wales with his family, Bateman began talking to locals who were "up in arms" over the construction of a foster home for children from the city. Seeing the degree of conflict the "influx of parentless children on a tight-knit community" was having, Bateman came away with the idea for a new serial. While Seven Network executives were unconvinced by the idea, audience research was positive.

There are two main locations where Home and Away is filmed, the studio in Redfern and most of the outdoor scenes at Summer Bay, which is actually Sydney’s Palm beach.
