The average salinity of seawater is 35 parts per 1000, so 3.5%.

I don't know the specifics on the Pacific Ocean, but was able to find the information re: all the oceans in general:
"The oceans are about 3.5% salt (by weight). Salinity is generally reported in terms of parts per thousand (abbreviated o/oo), the number of pounds of salt per 1,000 pounds of water; the average ocean salinity is 35 o/oo." This information was found on the website below...
