Season chronology

Survivor: Worlds Apart is the 30th season of the American CBS competitive reality television series Survivor, which premiered on February 25, 2015, with the season finale on May 20, 2015. It was the fourth Survivor season filmed in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, and on the same location as Survivor: Nicaragua, Survivor: Redemption Island, and Survivor: San Juan del Sur, tying it with the Philippines and Samoa for the most number of Survivor seasons filmed in one country, although all three would be surpassed by Fiji after Survivor: Ghost Island (season 36). It features three tribes of six new players divided by social class: white collar, blue collar, and no collar. This season introduced the concept of an extra vote, in which one player can vote twice at a single Tribal Council, which was offered during the season's Survivor Auction. This season also saw the return of the firemaking tiebreaker challenge in the final four, last used in Survivor: Gabon.

The two-hour season finale and one-hour reunion special aired on May 20, 2015, where Mike Holloway was named the winner over Carolyn Rivera and Will Sims II in a 6–1–1 vote.
