West Sandwick contains one of the major recreational beaches in Yell.

The area south of Southladie Flo is an important feeding area for locally breeding red-throated divers. The rare curved sedge (Carex maritima) grows beside an exit stream on West Sandwick beach.

The bay contains a distinctive shingle spit known as the Urabug.
