The Caribbean Sea is salty primarily due to the evaporation of seawater, which leaves behind dissolved salts and minerals. Additionally, the limited inflow of freshwater from rivers and rainfall contributes to its salinity. Ocean currents also play a role, circulating saltier water from other regions. Together, these factors help maintain the Caribbean Sea's characteristic salinity.

Is salt made in the Caribbean?

No. Salt is a naturally-occurring mineral found in rocks and dirt, usually deep underground. Rivers and streams often pick up saltiness as they run through these salt deposits. The saltiness is constantly carried on to the ocean or sea. There is no meaningful way for the salt to be taken out of seawater, so the sea or oceans are always salty.
