Jacques Amyot (13 November 1924 – 7 September 2018) was a Canadian swimmer from Quebec.
As a long distance swimmer, besides holding 50 records in Quebec and 15 in open water swimming in Canada, qualifying for the 1948 London Olympics, and crossing the English channel twice, he may be best known for winning the first 26 km (16 mile) Marathon race across Lac St. Jean on July 23, 1955 in eleven hours and 32 minutes. The race has continued and is now known as la Traversée internationale du lac St-Jean.
As an honored guest, Amyot frequently attended the race and congratulated the winner until his death in 2018.
