It is because of moisture. There is greater amount of moisture on coastal areas and there is very low amount of moisture in a desert.

Answer:

In coastal areas there is more moisture in air due to the presence of sea. But, in desert there is a scarcity of water and hence air is almost dry there. Both air and moisture are necessary conditions for rusting. So, rusting is faster is coastal areas than in desert.
