Warren Daniels Kealoha (March 3, 1903 – September 8, 1972) was an American competition swimmer who was twice an Olympic gold medalist and a world record-holder.
Kealoha won the 100-meter backstroke event at the 1920 and 1924 Summer Olympics. During his career, Kealoha set four world records, first at the 1920 Olympics and last in Honolulu in 1926, which was beaten the next day by Walter Laufer. He was not related to Olympic swimming champion Pua Kealoha. After retiring from swimming, Kealoha became a rancher. He was inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame as an "Honor Swimmer" in 1968.
