Survivor South Africa: Maldives is the fourth season of Survivor South Africa. Maldives featured 19 new contestants who began the game divided into two informal groups, the "Celebs" and the "Plebs". Through an unusual tribe division process, the Goma and Raituhn tribes were formed on Day 4 and came to define the rest of the season's politics. The twist-heavy season introduced the modern Hidden Immunity Idol to Survivor South Africa as well as the Black and White Cowries, all of which contributed significantly to the season's active strategy. After 27 days of intense gameplay combined with numerous heated arguments, both of a strategic and personal nature, "Celeb" Hykie Berg defeated "Pleb" Letshego Moshoeu in an 8-3 jury vote to become the first male Ultimate Survivor of the series. Following the airing of Maldives, the Survivor South Africa series entered its second hiatus until its resumption with Champions in 2014.
