If you drank seawater, the salt would get absorbed into your blood along with the water . That would make your blood too salty. So, your kidneys would have to remove the salt. But to do that they would need to use even more water! That's why drinking seawater would just make you thirstier. It can even make you sick if you drink it too often.

Although people can't drink seawater, some marine mammals (like whales and seals) and seabirds (like gulls and albatrosses) can drink seawater. Marine mammals have super efficient kidneys, and seabirds have a special gland in their nose that removes salt from the blood.
