The highest surface salinity in the world ocean is found in the Red Sea.
Salinity in the ocean is highest in regions where evaporation is high and precipitation is low. Density in seawater is determined by both temperature and salinity.
In open ocean evaporation affects the salinity of the oceans, in closed oceans the lack of sunrays cause greater salinity levels.

Salinity variations in the open ocean typically range from about 33 parts per thousand (ppt) to 37 ppt. These variations can be influenced by factors such as evaporation, precipitation, river runoff, and ocean currents. In some regions, such as coastal areas or estuaries, salinity can fluctuate more dramatically due to localized conditions. Overall, the average salinity of seawater is approximately 35 ppt.
sambhar lake has the highest water salinity in India
dead sea and red sea has the highest salinity
33 to 37 grams of salt per kilogram of seawater
The Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) are the low salinity waters found in the Southern Ocean.
You could increase the salinity of the ocean by adding salt or removing water (ie: by evaporation).
