Hadith No: 386
Narrated/Authority of Mughirah bin Abu Burdah
who was from the tribe of Banu Abdud-Dar, said that he heard Abu Hurairah say: "A man came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we travel by sea and carry a small amount of water with us. If we use it for ablution, we will become thirsty. Can we perform ablution with seawater?' The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: 'Its water is a means of purification, and its dead meat is permissible. (i.e. the fish found dead in the sea).'" (Sahih)
