Water Belongsto Everyone.
African & Pacific Community Aquatics Association
Building a future where every African and Pacific Islander can swim, stay safe, and thrive in the water.
Why APCAA Exists
More Than Swimming.
We exist to close the gap.
African and Pacific Islander communities are significantly underrepresented in aquatics. APCAA was founded to change that — through programs, pathways, and community.
Water Safety
Essential water safety education that could save lives — in pools, rivers, beaches and beyond.
Learn to Swim
Structured swimming lessons for all ages and abilities, from beginners to confident swimmers.
Inclusive Programs
Programs designed to welcome everyone, removing barriers to participation for African communities.
Education & Development
Pathways for coaches, officials and leaders from within our community to grow and lead.
Fin Swimming
One of the fastest-growing aquatic sports in the world — and central to APCAA's unique identity.
