The swimming competition at the 2003 South Pacific Games took place from June 30-July 7, 2003 (Monday-Monday) in Suva, Fiji.
The pool events were held on the first 6 days in the 50m (long-course) pool at Fiji's National Aquatics Centre, and a 3-kilometre ("3K") open water race was held at Pacific Harbour on Monday, July 7, 2003. Originally, a 5K open water race was to be contested--5K being a more widely internally accepted race distance than a 3K. However, rough conditions on-course pushed the turn markers/buoys out of position and the length of the race needed to be changed to accommodate the conditions.[1]
Overall, Papua New Guinea's Ryan Pini (male) and New Caledonia's Diane Bui Duyet (female) were named "Swimmers of the Meet" for their overall performances: Pini won 7 events, 4 in record time and earned 12 medals overall; Bui-Duyet won 10 with 5 SPG records, and 11 medals total.[2]
