Q: Possible allergy to salt water

I was wondering if it is possible to be allergic to salt water/sea water. Everytime I have swam in the ocean, I develop a bumpy itchy rash on both my arms only. I know its not the sunblock I use because when I swim in fresh water, it does not happen. Only when I swim in the ocean.
