Blood is far denser than sea water as it has a whole bunch of cellular bodies mixed in with it.
I think you wanted to ask "Which is denser seawater or serum?" In that case serum is still heavier even though it has less salt. Serum still has a wide assortment of exotic proteins dissolved in it.

What would happen to a person blood osmolality when drinking seawater?
When you drink seawater, a high concentration of salt finds its way into your blood vessels. As a result, you have a higher concentration of solutes (salt molecules, in this case) on the outside of your blood cells than in your blood cells-- there is a hypertonic solution on the outside of the blood cells. Your body wants to keep solutions isotonic across the membranes-- that means your body wants the same amount of free water molecules on the inside of the blood cells as the outside-- so water molecules move out of the blood cells in order to keep the balance of free water molecules. The water moving out of the blood cells cause them to "crenate," or shrink, which is of course not very good for your cells.

Because sand is denser than water. But I suspect you meant to ask "why is it easier to stay afloat in seawater than it is in fresh water". In which case the answer is the same: seawater is denser ... but not as dramatically, and the difference is small enough that you're unlikely to actually notice it unless you take careful measurements.
