This depends on several factors: Amount of salt (its not constant) and pressure (water depth).

Generally on the surface, under normal conditions, water will start to freeze at about 28 deg F or nearly -2 C.

if there is many salt then it freezes at -10 degrees

Ocean water freezes just like freshwater, but at lower temperatures. Fresh water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheitbut seawater freezes at about 28.4 degrees Fahrenheit , because of the salt in it. When seawater freezes, however, the ice contains very little salt because only the water part freezes.
