Sara Harstick (born 8 September 1981 in Hildesheim, Niedersachsen) is a former German freestyle swimmer, who won bronze medals in the 2000 and 2004 Summer Olympics.

Also in 2004 in Athens, she swam in her only individual Olympic race, finishing sixth in the fifth heat of the 200 m freestyle, one spot short of advancing to the semifinals. A few months before the 2008 Summer Olympics, Harstick ended her swimming career after the firing of her coach, Rainer Tylinski.
