Yes, the original early oceans were likely salty. When the Earth formed, volcanic activity released gases, including water vapor, which condensed to form oceans. As the rocks on land weathered, minerals, including salts, were washed into these bodies of water, contributing to their salinity. Over time, this process led to the oceans we know today, characterized by their high salt content.
