Survivor: Ecuador is the twenty-fourth season of Survivor. The season was filmed in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, the same location as the previous season.
The twenty contestants, referred to as "castaways", were originally split up into two tribes of ten. The tribe names were Pinzón and Rábida, names of two of the Galápagos Islands. The merged tribe was named by the twelve castaways who made the merge. It was named Estrella, which means "star" in Spanish. After 39 days of competition, Nick Grundy was given the title of Sole Survivor, defeating Matt Fancher and Jane Riddell, in a 6-2-1 vote.
Nick Villatoro was awarded the $100,000 Verizon Player of the Season prize, receiving 39% of the vote, while Danica Connolly and Jordan Phifer came in 2nd and 3rd place respectively.
Connolly, Sarah Oldham, and Brendan Fortune returned to compete in Survivor: Nepal, where they placed 20th, 12th, and 2nd, respectively.
