No - just one. The Great Sandy Desert is in Western Australia. It is Australia's second largest desert, with an area of 284,993 km2 (110,036 square miles). It follows the Great Victoria Desert, also in Western Australia, which is the largest Australian desert, with an area of 424,400 km2 (163,900 square miles).
