Do you ride on the beach? Anyway, bike chain should be cleaned and lubricated. Maybe you should choose the oil for wet weather. They are thicker and should give better protection than the lighter oil. The downside with the heavier oil is they tend to collect dirt and you need to clean and reapply often if you ride you bike on unpaved roads.
