As an approximation, it is about 3/4 of its speed in a vacuum, or 225,000,000 meters per second.
As Dipen said, you'd really need to know the index of refraction which depends on its temperature, etc. The index of refraction of water is about 1.33, so the speed of light in water is (c/1.33) = 2.25E8 m/s.
