The Hawks came back to the original two islands in the final week, with the girls spending their first two days back on Shark Island, and the boys on Tiger Island. They then swapped over for the following two days. At the final beach party each of the final new arrivals (the former Hawk Islanders) individually picked between joining the Tigers and the Sharks. In the final week the Sharks were leading with 13, while the Tigers had only 9, however at the final beach party 12 of the 13 new arrivals picked Tiger Island, leaving Tigers with an amazing 21, compared to the Sharks' 14 (there were no nominations from either tribe). Original Shark James, and original Tiger Char (both rejected to the third ("Hawk") Island in the first week (14 weeks previously)), both picked Tiger Island, and were finally awarded their island necklaces. Original Hawk Islander, and survival expert Nick, also joined Tiger Island.
