I think it is fresh water freezes faster because the salt melts ice.
Fresh water freezes much much quicker.
Fresh water
When water has a substance dissolved in it, it freezes at a lower temperature. Salt water has salt dissolved in the water, so it freezes at a lower temperature than fresh water.
Salt Water
fresh water, because salt water is more dense
Fresh water freezes faster than salt water, yes.
Fresh water, because aqueous solutions have depressed freezing points.
Fresh water freezes at 32°f (0°c) at sea level. Sea water freezes at 28.4°f (-2°c) at sea level. Salt water depends on the concentration of salt. At maximum saturation salt water (23.3% by weight) freezes at -5.98°f (-21.1°c).

Sugar water freezes faster than salt water. However, regular tap water will freeze faster than either salt, or sugar water.
sea water doesnt freeze faster than fresh water, fresh water freezes faster than sea water as it has a lower freezing point than sea water has as sea water contains salt which makes the boiling/freezing points increase therefore making the sea water freeze at a lower temperature.
