Survivor South Africa: Maldives is the fourth season of the South African reality television show Survivor South Africa. Nico Panagio returns as host; the show premiered on February 24, 2011.
The season was filmed in the Addu Atoll of the island nation of the Maldives. The castaways consist of 10 people picked out of obscurity in open auditions around South Africa and nine well known South African celebrities, all of whom are competing for the grand prize of R1 million and the title of Ultimate Survivor.
After lasting 27 days on the islands in the Maldives, 32-year-old actor-celebrity Hykie Berg beat 27-year-old biokeniticist/Pleb Letshego Moshoeu for the title of Ultimate Survivor, 8–3 by jury vote.
^1 The Celebrities and the Plebs played separate challenges, in order to keep them unaware of the other groups' existence. When the Goma Plebs lost the immunity challenge on Day 2, the Goma celebs did not know about it. Only the Goma Plebs voted in the first tribal council.
^2 This castaway held one of the two Black Cowrie shells during the course of the game. Therefore, they received votes for every tribal council that they sit in, starting from Day 5. Until they are voted out of the game, or defected to the opposing tribe to break the negative vote against them. The Black Cowrie Shells became void at the merger on Day 16.
^3 Because Vanessa played the Hidden Immunity Idol, five votes against her didn't count.
^4 Because Tejan played the Hidden Immunity Idol, any votes that would have been cast against him on Day 15 wouldn't have counted.
^5 Because Hykie played the Hidden Immunity Idol, three votes against him didn't count.
^6 Because Letshego played the Hidden Immunity Idol, three votes against her didn't count.
^7 This person is the first holder of the White Cowrie Shell. They did not have a vote negated by the previous holder.
