Water occurs in rivers that pass through some deserts and some deserts have natural lakes and ponds. Water is also found in an oasis where ground water comes to the surface in the form of a spring or in wells dug by natives of the area. As none of these resources can always be safe for humans to drink, you would be best to take along safe drinking water you visit a desert.
