Yes, Australia does experience droughts on the coast, although these are less common and their effects less intense, than droughts further inland. Droughts on the coast are usually manifested by a lack of rain to fill dams, and the gradual drying off (and dying off) of trees and other vegetation. Desertification does not occur in these areas.
