La Isla de los FamoS.O.S. 1 was the first season of the show La Isla de los FamoS.O.S. and the third overall season of Supervivientes to air in Spain; it was broadcast on Antena 3 from January 23, 2003 to February 27, 2003. This season took place in the Dominican Republic.
Ultimately, it was Daniela Cardone, a famous model born in Argentina, who beat out Ismael Beiro, the well known winner from Gran Hermano season 1, and well known journalist Miguel Temprano for the €60,000 grand prize.
Beginning with this season there was a dramatic change in the format of the Spanish version of Survivor.
- First, instead of the contestants being mainly regular citizens, they were well known celebrities or former contestants of previous reality shows.
- Second, instead of tribal council elimination votes, contestants nominated other contestants for eviction through nominations and a leader appointed nominee(s) and the public decided who would be eliminated from the game.
- Third, as opposed to any of the previous seasons (as well as any that followed) this season only had eight initial contestants competing for the prize money with a ninth (María José Besora) entering following the voluntary exit of Nani Gaitán.
