Exathlon Greece is the Greek version of the reality competition television series franchise Exatlon, where two teams of physically fit contestants compete against each other. The show was broadcast on Skai TV and also in Cyprus on Sigma TV.
The show was announced in May 2024 with casting call trailers. The game was in pre-production throughout the summer, but in August 2024, the producers decided against it and instead greenlit the twelfth season of Survivor, which did very poor ratings. The production and the network discussed the possibility of releasing it in January 2025, but it was again canceled.
In July 2025, the network issued a press release[1] officially announcing the show. The production decided to cast the show with contestants from Survivor from seasons 5–12.
Model and former athlete Yiorgos Karavas[2] was the host of the show. The show premiered on August 31, 2025 with 5 episodes per week.
The audience have no control through voting to keep a player in the game as nominees come of through their athletic performance. Each week a man and a woman leave. There are no mixed matches as one man and one woman win the title at the end.
Contestants
The show started with 20 contestants (10 men and 10 women) from Survivor Greece from season 5 to 12.[3] They weren't any additions to the cast.
