Survivor: Fiji is the fourteenth season of the American CBS competitive reality television series Survivor. The season was filmed in the Fiji Islands. The premiere of Fiji aired on February 8, 2007. The two-hour season finale aired on May 13, 2007, followed by the Reunion show live from Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City. Host Jeff Probst has gone on record declaring the season as one of his least favorite seasons. Applications were due June 16, 2006. The complete season (including the live Reunion show) was released on DVD on December 11, 2012, available exclusively through Amazon.com.

In a twist from previous seasons of Survivor, all contestants participated in at least one challenge before being split into two tribes and moving to two different tribe camps. One camp (built by all contestants in the initial challenge), Moto, was furnished with several luxuries, including shelters built from pre-cut wood, a kitchen area with dishware, a shower, a toilet, furniture, and the means to maintain fire. The other camp, Ravu, was given merely a pot and a machete to survive. During the broadcast of the season, host Jeff Probst admitted that this concept did not play out quite as the producers hoped, as it led to the "haves" tribe predictably dominating in the challenges over the "have-nots" week after week. Exile Island returned once again for Fiji, with new twists. Unlike previous seasons, there were two hidden immunity idols, with one hidden at each camp. The idol now had to be played before Jeff read the results of the voting, rather than after. Once a hidden immunity idol was used, it was rehidden rather than discarded. The idols were good through the final five. The winner, Earl Cole, was unanimously selected by the jury. Yau-Man Chan reported that Andria "Dreamz" Herd and Cassandra Franklin received $100,000, as they both received the same number of votes for Sole Survivor (zero) and tied for second place. He also reported that he received $60,000 for coming in fourth.

This was the first season of Survivor to have an odd number of castaways, with 19. Mellisa McNulty would have been the twentieth castaway, but dropped out the night before the show because of panic attacks and irritable bowel syndrome. Due to the timing and lack of alternates, her spot could not be replaced.Gary Stritesky was the only contestant who applied to be on the show; McNulty and the other 18 contestants were recruited.The cast retained the same amount of diversity as the previous season, Survivor: Cook Islands, in a conscious effort intended to show that the racial diversity of Survivor: Cook Islands was not just a ratings stunt.
