The salinity of the Red Sea ranges from 3.6 to 3.8%.

The density of water in the Suez Canal, which connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, varies slightly due to differences in salinity and temperature. Typically, the density of Mediterranean Sea water is around 1.025 g/cm³, while the Red Sea has a higher salinity, resulting in a density of approximately 1.027 g/cm³. The density in the Suez Canal itself can fluctuate between these two values, influenced by the mixing of waters from both seas.
There are no locks, the Mediterranean and the Red sea are about the same level
dead sea and red sea has the highest salinity
Red Sea and Persian Gulf are the areas with the highest salinity. Then the areas with lowest salinity would be the polar seas (or seas near to the polar tips), and sometimes some seas near a fresh body of water. For example, the South American area near Amazon River only has an average salinity of 28 o/oo. The Baltic Sea may have an average salinity of 5 o/oo. Hope this helps!!

There are several factors that the Red Sea has high salinity. The Red Sea has a high rate of evaporation and very little precipitation. It also has a limited connection with the Indian Ocean, which has lower water salinity. The Red Sea has a lack of significant rivers or streams draining into the sea.
