Paraguay competed at the 2017 World Aquatics Championships in Budapest, Hungary from 14 July to 30 July.
Paraguay, officially the Republic of Paraguay, is a country of South America. It is bordered by Argentina to the south and southwest, Brazil to the east and northeast, and Bolivia to the northwest. Although it is one of only two landlocked countries in South America, the country has coasts, beaches and ports on the Paraguay and Paraná rivers that give exit to the Atlantic Ocean through the Paraná-Paraguay Waterway. Due to its central location in South America, it is sometimes referred to as Corazón de Sudamérica.
The 17th FINA World Championships were held in Budapest, Hungary from 14 to 30 July 2017.
