The above statement is True.
It is true that water takes a lot of time to heat up as compared to sand. It is because water requires a greater amount of heat energy to raise its temperature by 1 degree celsius than sand. This is the reason why the nights are cold in deserts because sand gets heated quickly but cools down quickly also.
