Because the ocean is salty. The process of osmosis pulls water into a cell when the concentration of water in the surrounding environment is higher than that of the cell, and vice versa if the concentration is lower. Pure water is "hypotonic" that is, more concentrated to our skin cells, causing them to swell up and prune. Salt water is either "isotonic" (same concentration) or "hypertonic" (less concentration) which leads to relatively no change in skin cell size, thus no pruning.

When you go to swim why do you get prune stuff on your fingers and toes but not your body?
When you swim, the outer layer of your skin absorbs water, causing it to swell and wrinkle.

Other parts of your body have thinner skin layers, so they do not wrinkle as prominently.

What makes hands prune up when soaked in water?
It has to do with the the way your fingers are made. The tips of fingers and toes are covered by a tough, thick layer of skin. When they are soaked for a prolonged period it absorbs water and expands. However, there is no room for this expansion on fingers and toes, so the skin buckles and you get wrinkles.
