On the East side of the Shetland island of Yell, at the Ness of Queyon, near Otterswick is a solemn sight – a white statue of a lady looking out across the bay, with a Bible held to her chest.

The statue is signposted from the road to Queyon and there’s a footpath leading down to where she stands, a short distance away from the cliff edge. It’s a good place to see seals and occasionally otters. Out in the bay you may see common porpoises chasing shoals of surface-feeding fish.

West Sandwick beach is a quaint white sand beach on the west coast of Yell. This little gem, only a stone's throw from the car park, is hidden from view by its dunes and offers amazing views of rocky outcrops towards the North Mainland of Shetland. West Sandwick also holds a Beach Award from Keep Scotland Beautiful.

The Sands of Breckon is a white sand beach in the North of Yell, which has the largest area of shell sand dune and dune grassland in Shetland.

This beautiful beach is sheltered from the prevailing south-westerly winds and provides a wonderful view of the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. Traces of Viking and pre-Viking settlements can be found around the beach. The beach is in a rural farming region and access to the beach can be steep in places, but it is well worth the walk.
