swim heart rate question

doing some cross training and wore my heart rate monitor on the weekend and noticed my average workout in the pool was 75% of max. I thought I was swimming fairly hard and was wondering from other swimmers if the HR in the pool should get up to say 85% to 90% of max with hard workouts. Or is swimming just not that intensive, compared to a speed workout running? Any thoughts?
