We had an outdoor, unheated pool when I was a kid. The water temperature was rarely out of the 70's. I'm totally a "get used to it" person - I'll pretty much jump into anything if I want to swim badly enough, and I'll stay in until my fingernails are turning purple.

I remember as a kid, bodysurfing at Santa Cruz. No wetsuit, just grin and bear it. Now, I can't stand to have my feet in that cold water. I just checked an online source and the current Pacific Ocean temperature in that area is 54 degrees. It peaks in August/September at 60!
We also had a pool and kept it at 80 degrees. Sometimes it felt warm, and at others it felt cool.
