No, actually. The Antarctic Desert is the largest desert, though some geographers disagree. A desert is determined by its annual precipitation, and Antarctica is definitely a dry cold area.

Deserts are normally divided into "cold" and "hot" deserts.

The Sahara is the largest hot desert and Antarctica the largest cold desert


The Sahara Desert is the largest hot desert on Earth, but the largest desert overall is the Antarctic.
