Swimming at the 1979 South Pacific Games

Swimming at the 1979 South Pacific Games took place in Suva, the capital of Fiji. It was the sixth edition of the South Pacific Games. The existing South Pacific Games record time was broken in every event.

There were either 24 or 23 events on the programme, depending on whether the men's 4 × 200 metres relay was contested and officially included in the medals. There are conflicting sources of information cited (as of November 2015) and none sufficient to provide clarity.
