Here's a more detailed explanation: 

Prophet Muhammad's encouragement:

The Prophet (pbuh) is quoted as saying, "Everything (that) is not from the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic is He) is (either) idle entertainment or oversight, except for four: walking between the two targets (archery), training one's horse, entertaining one's family and learning to swim," according to some scholars. This indicates his positive view of swimming and its inclusion among recommended activities.
