The Division of Swan is an Australian electoral division located in Western Australia.

Swan is a marginal electorate that has swung between both major political parties in the past two decades. It extends across the Swan River from central Perth, and covers most of the area between the Swan and Canning Rivers.[1]

The seat includes a mix of incomes and housing types, from low-price flats to affluent suburbs with Swan River views.[1] The electorate includes the campus of Curtin University, the Welshpool and Kewdale industrial areas, and Perth Airport.[1] Swan covers 151 sq. kilometres.[1]

The current MP is Zaneta Mascarenhas, a member of the Australian Labor Party. She was elected in the 2022 election.
