It depends what you're comparing it to, but generally it isn't particularly viscous. The viscosity (or thickness when referring to a liquid) is usually only slightly higher than that of water. Something really viscous might be cookie dough, and something really not viscous would be gasoline.

Water will float on honey. Try it. Is oil is more dense than water. Take some cooking oil and pour it on water. Which floats on the other?
