Survivor South Africa: Santa Carolina is the third season of Survivor South Africa. The premiere aired on January 20, 2010. In contrast to the previous two seasons, Santa Carolina featured an all-star cast of South African celebrities fighting to win money for their charities. The season saw two early quits as well as the rise of the series' first all-female alliance, which quietly took control of the post-merge game. In the end, 42 year-old exotic dancer GiGi van Schalkwyk defeated 42 year-old TV presenter Ashley Hayden in a 6-3 vote, winning the R1 million prize.
