The swimming competition at the 2005 South Pacific Mini Games in Palau was held July 25–30. The venues for the events were:
- pool: National Aquatics Center in Meyuns; and
- open water: Palau Pacific Resort Beach.
All pool events were swum in a 6-lane, short-course (25m) pool;[1] the open water events were 5-kilometres in length (5K).
Two notes, related to the organization of the meet:[1]
- Swimmers who were to compete at the 2005 World Championships, were not allowed to swim in the Mini Games (although the competitions were at the same time).
- Full medals were only given out in events with five or more entrants. If an event had four entrants, only the gold and silver medals were award; if an event had only two or three entrants, only the gold medal. Events with fewer than three medals awarded are noted under the event name.
