The White Lotus season 3 has now reached its midway point and the latest episode took us all aboard for a claustrophobic boat ride. While things with the Ratliff family started to reach fever pitch, Rick and Chelsea were stuck navigating awkward conversations. Meanwhile, back on dry land, the girls' trip got out of hand with a night of debauchery on the town. There's a lot of tension building in the background too with Greg becoming ever more suspicious...

So to help you stay up to date and keep on track of streaming new episodes, we've compiled a complete guide to streaming the third season of The White Lotus. This includes everything from when exactly new episodes arrive to how many there are in total (spoiler, there's even more to enjoy this time). Happy vacationing!
