Aguila is one of two competing tribes on Survivor South Africa: Panama. Their color is blue.

Aguila proved its dominance in challenges, especially the Reward Challenges, and they caught plenty of fish to aid in their survival. Despite their efforts, camp relationships were fraught, and Aguila lost several members in a row, giving them a numbers disadvantage by the time the merge came.
