Survivor: Africa

Survivor: Africa is the third season of the American CBS competitive reality television series Survivor. The season was filmed from July 11, 2001 through August 18, 2001 and premiered in 2002. Hosted by Jeff Probst, it consisted of the usual 39 days of gameplay with 16 competitors. It was set in Kenya's Shaba National Reserve on the African continent.

The two initial tribes were Boran and Samburu, named for the real-life Borana and Samburu tribes. After 12 days, three members of each team switched to the other team, in what became known as the first "twist" in the Survivor series. When ten contestants remained, the two tribes merged into the Moto Maji tribe Swahili for 'fire' and 'water').

The complete season, including the mid-season recap episode, live reunion show, and "Back From Africa" special documenting the post-Survivor lives of the contestants, was released on DVD on October 5, 2010. The collection was initially released in a 9-disc package, but was later reissued condensed into 5 discs.

The winner of this season was Carol Tyler, who defeated Natalya Morgan by a vote of 4-3.

This season was preceded by Survivor: The Australian Outback and followed by Survivor: Marquesas.
