Survivor: Caicos Islands is the eighth season of the second generation Suitman's Survivor Series, which began on July 21, 2013, and ended with a live reunion on August 1, 2013.

It ended with Trey C. defeating Matthew S. and Brian B. at the Final Tribal Council in a 4-2-0 Jury vote. At the Reunion, Adam won Player of the Season, while Trey won Fan Favorite. This was the first season not to feature the Bentertainment Award due to it being discontinued.

Production

This season featured sixteen all new castaways, divided into two tribes of eight. The tribes for this season were named after towns in the Turks & Cacios Islands region. The tribes were Balfour, wearing pink, and Whitby, in green. The insignia of Balfour is a female tribal mermaid drawing, while the insignia of Whitby is a male tribal mermaid drawing. On Day 6, the tribes merged into Lorimers, wearing orange.

28 people applied, 12 were cut from the casting, and 16 went on to become the castaways competing in the game. The cast and initial tribes were both revealed on premiere day, July 21, 2013.

Twists

• One World: This season, the castaways underwent a Tribe Switch every two Tribal Councils in constant shifts, changing who was playing against who and the relations in-game to keep the pre-merge interesting. The twist returned for Jan Mayen.
• Tribe Switch: On Day 2 and Day 4, due to the One World twist, the Balfour and Whitby tribes underwent tribe switches, mixing up the tribes.
• Double Tribal Council: On Day 1, both tribes went to Tribal Council to vote someone out, with the challenge being individual.
• Hidden Immunity Idols: There was one hidden idol placed in each tribe camp, which could be found by correctly guessing the answer to the clues sent daily.

^3 Due to a tie, there was a re-vote between the tied players.
^4 Anthony played a Hidden Immunity Idol on himself, therefore five votes cast against him were not counted.
^5 Adam played a Hidden Immunity Idol on himself, therefore four votes cast against him were not counted.
