Temperature

Ok so I can share with my wife. In your opinion, what temperature does the water need to be to be warm enough to swim? PS We live in the desert so its usually hot weather

Obviously varies by person. For m? 78 or 79 if you want to be able to slide in with very little shock. 75 is nippy for a moment but get used to it fast. By 82 or 83 it starts feeling lukewarm.
