The oceans are now "meant" to be salty they just are salty. The reason is that when rain falls on the land it disolves some of the chemicals in the soil and the rocks, water then flows into rivers and eventually the seas and the oceans, still catrrying its loads of dissolved chemicals which tend to be nitrates and chlorides because both are soluable, the nirtates get used up by marine vegetation but the chlorides (salts) remain in the water, hence the oceans and the seas are salty.
