Alone Australia Season 2 Episode Guide: Every Episode, Recapped

Spoiler note: this covers the full season, including who won and every tap-out along the way.

Season 2 ran 10 episodes on SBS from late March to late May 2024, filmed in Fiordland on New Zealand's South Island despite airing under the Alone Australia name. Nine of the ten contestants were gone before the finale, and the winner wasn't even the one who chose to stay in. Here's what actually happened, episode by episode.

#	Episode	Air Date	What happens
1	"At Night I Dream of Sandflies"	2024-03-27	Ten contestants are dropped into Fiordland's rain-soaked wilderness, and sandflies plague every camp from hour one. Mike Hayes develops chest tightness while lighting a fire and calls the rescue boat.
2	"Helter Shelter"	2024-04-03	Mike Hayes is confirmed tapped out after his chest pain (an ECG later comes back normal). Leanne Mitchell taps out overwhelmed by missing her husband and children.
3	"Crashing in Slow Motion"	2024-04-10	No tap-outs. Andreas kills a possum with a shovel for the season's first red meat, and Jack bow-fishes successfully despite heavy sandfly bites.
4	"What I'd Do for a Stick of Celery"	2024-04-17	Jason Allwood taps out on medical advice after losing 11kg in eight days. Chace Leitch withdraws after learning his partner is pregnant.
5	"Look at That Stonker!"	2024-04-24	Jack, medically cleared but exhausted after 13 days without protein, taps out rather than risk going home too weak for his family. Andreas lands two large fly-caught trout.
6	"Bush Crafternoons"	2024-05-01	No tap-outs. Krzysztof Wojtkowski spins flax cordage on a hand-built wheel, and Tamika nearly taps out from prolonged bleeding and joint pain before deciding to stay.
7	"Teach a Contestant To Fish…"	2024-05-08	No tap-outs. Winds up to 130 km/h test every shelter, Tamika builds a real fishing surplus, and Suzan Muir reveals she is a breast cancer survivor.
8	"Captains and Their Ships"	2024-05-15	Rick J. Petersen taps out on day 38 after catching only one trout during his entire run. Tamika lands a 64cm trout, her biggest of the season.
9	"Justice For Trout"	2024-05-22	Tamika Simpson taps out on day 53, declining to shoot nearby geese on ethical grounds and citing the danger of fishing from an unstable ledge.
10	"Sleep is for the Nourished"	2024-05-29	The finale. Andreas taps out on day 57, Suzan taps out on day 63 and is later hospitalized on an IV drip, and Krzysztof is medically pulled on day 64 for safety rather than tapping out, becoming the winner as the last person remaining.

A season decided by attrition, not a finish line

What makes this season different from a typical Alone finale is that nobody actually chose to stay in until the end. Krzysztof Wojtkowski wins at 64 days, the longest run in Alone Australia history at the time, without ever making the call himself; a routine medical check pulled him for vomiting and severe sleep deprivation, and he became the winner by simply being the last person still standing. That's a genuinely different ending than season 1's confirmed survivor reveal, and it's worth watching the finale specifically to see how the show handles a win nobody gets to celebrate on their own terms.

Where to focus a rewatch

Episode 10 is the essential hour: three contestants collapsing within days of each other, ending in a win decided by a medic rather than a clock. Episode 6 is the best pick for bushcraft technique, and episode 9 is worth it for Tamika Simpson's ethical tap-out, one of the more thoughtful exits in the franchise. For the complete cast list and stats, see the Alone Australia season 2 hub; for what Krzysztof has done since the win, here's where he is now. Four of this season's nine tap-outs were medical calls rather than voluntary exits, a pattern covered further in our full evacuation rundown, and where to watch has current streaming access.
