Best Answer

Yes. The Red Sea is the saltiest body of water that directly connects to the wider oceans, primarily because it receives minimal water from rivers. Conversely, there are a large number of rivers which pour into the Indian ocean as well as monsoon rains which help ease the salt levels. However, we are not talking about orders of magnitude more or less salt; the differential is around 20%.
