Welcome sights in the Sahara (5)

I believe the answer is:

oases

(Other definitions for oases that I've seen before include "Fertile desert spots" , "Where there may be dates" , "Fertile desert places" , "Fertile areas in deserts" , "Fertile tracts in a desert" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
