Why does the sea breeze feel 'salty'? Can salt in the ocean evaporate into the air?

Placebo. Impossible for salt to be in the air, as evaporation occurs.

Yes salt can cling to particulates in the air, usually extremely fine dirt/sand kicked up by the wind.

Salt itself doesn't evaporate, but it can get suspended in the air and blown great distances.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_spray
>Sea spray are aerosol particles formed from the ocean, mostly by ejection into Earth's atmosphere by bursting bubbles at the air-sea interface.[1] Sea spray contains both organic matter and inorganic salts that form sea salt aerosol (SSA).

>Anyone who has ever bought a used car has probably considered how salty environment impacts metal. Salt acts as a corrosion agent, deteriorating metal, paint, and finishes. These salty conditions can have a similar affect on buildings. You can especially see this in coastal areas around the world. But at what the distance from the sea does salt subside? How many miles inland will salt air travel and corrode metal?

>Based on this study, most of America’s coast witnesses mild levels of salt intrusion. However, Florida receives the highest rate of salt penetration in the USA, even up to 100 miles inland.

Also organic matter. But the wind causes sea froth which kicks up tiny water droplets, when in the air the water evaporates off and a salt crystal forms around some particulate, not unlike how hail is formed.

small water droplets from the ocean can stay in suspension in the air
