Singapore Aquatics (SAQ) is the national governing body for competitive swimming, diving, synchronised swimming, water polo and open water swimming in Singapore. SAQ is also charged with selecting the Singapore Olympic Swimming team and any other teams that officially represent Singapore, as well as the overall organisation and operation of the sport within the country.

Founded in 1939 as the Singapore Amateur Swimming Association (SASA); the body adopted a new name, Singapore Swimming Association (SSA), in 2002. It has been a member of FINA since its founding,[1] and is one of the founding members of the Asia Swimming Federation.[2] In July 2023, SSA was rebranded as Singapore Aquatics.
