About Alicia Fimple-Paccione
Former D1 swimmer. Aquatics professional. Mom of four.
Swimming has been part of my life since childhood— swimming competitively from ages 5–18 and then I went on to compete as a Division I student-athlete at Rider University.
After graduating, I began coaching and became an Aquatics Director in New Jersey, where I spent eight years building and leading innovative swim programs. During that time, I redesigned swim curriculum, launched a new lesson academy, created water-survival programming, and developed adaptive swim lessons in partnership with Faces 4 Autism.
In 2022, as a mom and aquatics professional, I saw a growing need for convenient, high-quality swim instruction and founded Island Aquatics NJ, LLC. What began as a one-woman operation has quickly grown into a team of instructors serving families throughout Atlantic and Cape May Counties.
As a mom of four, I understand the importance of safety, confidence, and convenience. Our mission is simple: to help the next generation learn to swim, survive, and love the water.
