Glycerin, motor oil, honey...
Oh, and Robert R below is wrong about glass, the claim that glass is a very viscous fluid has been dispelled a few years ago, but the announcment thereof was seemingly not as popular as the original claim -- I was saying that myself until was shown the evidence. Glass is an amorphous solid, and recent materials created by super-quencing metals or inhibiting crystaline formation have created a whole new class of material called glass-metals with unique properties -- do a search on vitralloy.
But ordinary glass will now flow over time.

some of the answers have confused viscosity with density ... oil is more viscous than water but will float on top of water.
Viscosity means that a material resists flow. Water has a viscosity but many fluids are more viscous. Oil, glycerin, and honey are good examples that others have suggested. Tar is even more viscous.

Basically, almost anything thicker than water...petrol, honey, oil. When u put them in water, they sink to the bottom rather than float.
