Woman swimming Emoji

People

A female figure shown mid-stroke while swimming. The character is typically depicted wearing a swimsuit and a swimming cap, moving through blue water to suggest forward momentum.

Usage Context

Used to talk about athletic training, pool visits, or taking a vacation near the ocean. It is a go-to icon for summer sports and fitness discussions. Often paired with 🏊‍♂️ to discuss swimming as a category, or with 🏖️ when sharing plans for a beach trip.

History

While the generic swimmer emoji was introduced earlier, the specific gender-variant sequence was finalized in Unicode 9.0 in 2016. This update was part of a major push to ensure professional and recreational athletic emojis were represented across both binary genders.
