Swimming at the 2005 Maccabiah Games – Women's 400 metre freestyle

The women's 400 metre freestyle event at the 2005 Maccabiah Games took place on 13 July at the Wingate Institute. This swimming event used freestyle swimming, which means that the method of the stroke is not regulated (unlike backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly events). Nearly all swimmers use the front crawl or a variant of that stroke. Because an Olympic size swimming pool is 50 metres long, this race consisted of eight lengths of the pool.

No heats were held, with all swimmers making the finals.
