"Salt" is a very general term for a group of evaporites, or rocks which form through the evaporation of water. By the question, I'm assuming you are referring to common table salt, NaCl.
Salt does not absorb water. On the contrary, salt is dissolved by water into individual particles of NaCl, which subsequently are bound to the water with hydrogen bonds. The only way to retrieve salt out of solution is through evaporation, which breaks the hydrogen bonds, releasing particles of H2O and leaving behind the salt in increasing greater concentrations within the remaining water. Eventually, the water will become super-saturated with NaCl, and the salt will be deposited.
