Post Description

Filming for the season was schedule to start in mid-March 2016, but had to be delayed by two weeks because of the effects of a cyclone that passed through the Fiji islands. The cyclone destroyed challenge props and the newly-built Tribal Council set, with the production team having "to scramble in two weeks to rebuild everything". During the peak of the typhoon (Day 2), the castaways were evacuated from their beaches and were sequestered in a barren room located at base camp until the cyclone subsided. The survivors returned to their camps nine hours later.
