wet dry vacuum cleaner. Use a 1" dry paint brush while holding the open nozzle of the vacuum under the fans to remove both the salt and anydust that may have accumulated on the fan.

Consider installing a splash/bubble guard between the fan and the water, a small shelf of acrylic around 25 cm x 25 cm mounted just under the fans with L brackets (painted with marine grade enamel or epoxy to prevent rust) shoud do the trick...
