The Mayo Clinic site says that at age six is when they usually just start to do more organized sports. -- (edited)

Through age five they recommend more free play activities and swimming is one of them. Looks like you made a good choice and from personal experience I started swimming at his age and have loved it so much ever since. I would go into any pool or ocean the second I got there. I hope he loves it and it may lead to him doing other water sports or just more swimming and maybe diving when he's older.
