It is because when the rivers pour water in seas they carry some minerals along with them which contains mostly NaCl(Common Salt) which gives a salty taste to the oceans water. One more reason for it is that the sea bed contains silt which also has Common Salt contained in it.

What else can I help you with?
What oceans are salty?
yes, they are salty ,with the help of sea water and ocean water we make salt.
Did oceans start off salty?
I believe that all water was originally salty, but freshwater formed when water evaporated out of the oceans and condensed somewhere else.
Is a huge source of salty water?
All the oceans and seas of the world are a huge source of salty water.
Contrast the water in oceans with fresh water?
Ocean water Can't drink it and its salty. Fresh Water can drink it, because its fresh :D!
Why is water in the Arctic ocean salty than oceans further south?
The Artic Ocean is more salty than oceans further south because when sea water freezes salt gets left behind in unfrozen water .
If most water evaporates from our salt water oceans why are not rain drops salty?
Salt is not evaporated with water.
Why are the oceans meant to be salty?
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.
What is a place where rivers flow into oceans and have very salty water but not as salty as the ocean?
The place where a river flows into an ocean and fresh water mixes with salt water is known as a delta. The water that is less salty than seawater is known as brackish water.
Is water that evaporates from the ocean salty or fresh?
It's fresh water. The salt remains in the oceans as the water evaporates.
Why 97 percent of the water is salty?
The majority of Earth's water is salty due to the continuous process of erosion, which carries dissolved minerals into the oceans. This, in combination with volcanic activity releasing minerals and salts into water bodies, contributes to the high salinity of our oceans. Additionally, evaporation of water from the oceans leaves the salts behind, further concentrating the salt content over time.
Where do you find salty water at six places?
Salty water can be found in oceans, seas, salt lakes, brine pools, estuaries, and the human body (tears, sweat).
Can salty oceans dry out?
No ocean can dry out as the rivers keep on bringing fresh water to it.
