Due to the areas extremely hot climate, a lot of evaporation takes place, which leaves behind dissolved minerals in the sea, making its water all the more saltier.
AnswerAll oceans have salt in them. The average salinity of all oceans is 35 parts per thousand. Salinity does vary according to depth and location. Areas of the ocean located near onshore river runoff typically have a lower salinity. Areas near the tropics with high evaporation rates tend to have higher salinity.

The salinity in isolated seas and salt-water lakes (for example, the Dead Sea) can be considerably greater. SO there's a high salinity in the Dead Sea. :D
Partial answer: The salinity of the dead sea is ~31.5% by weight while the salinity of the Mediterranean is ~3.5%
Saltwater does not have one definite salinity - for instance the salinity of the water in the Dead Sea is different to that of the Atlantic. Indeed the salinity of the sea itself can vary.

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.
The Dead Sea, which has 10 times the salinity of the oceans
