salt air
Seaside breeze quality
Salt air is air carrying the smell and moisture of the ocean, typically experienced near coastlines.
It suggests beaches, sea breezes, and maritime atmospheres: The salt air stung my face as we walked along the pier.
The term evokes both the literal sensation—slightly briny, humid—and the associations of coastal life and seaside vacations.
