Why it is easier for a swimmer to float in sea water than in fresh water?

Do humans float on water?
YES!!! Human density is 0.97 of 100 for water. So since we are less dense than water , we will float. Added to which nature gives us a pair of 'water wings' , they are called 'lungs'. Yes!!! you can lie on the surface of water, but because our density is slightly less than watert , most of the human organism will immerse in water, but enough is left above the surface of water, for us to breath.

Do objects float more easily in salt water or fresh water?
Adding Salt to the water increases the density of the water, and therefore makes it weight more per capita. This in turn causes the salty water to push down with more force then water with no salt, causes things that may not float, to float, and things that already float in normal water, to float higher in salty water.
