Do you think Aristotle would have thought of water flowing in a river as natural motion or forced motion? What about a human being swimming in a lake or the ocean?
Water flowing in river and ocean is natural motion. Because it's not consuming any form of energy while flowing. You can try to stop this flow by blocking it's way but it will make it way around it and flow though same way.
In swimming you have to work against water force ( bouncy force ) so it's a forced motion you will carried by water current if don't use force action.
