Between Yarrawonga Point and West Hill Island is an unnamed bay, 8 km wide at the entrance between the two points. It extends 5 km inland and contains 20 km of low energy shoreline, dominated by narrow, sandy beaches, extensive intertidal sand flats, and backing tidal creeks and mangrove-covered tidal flats, with the creek channels meandering across the tidal flats at low tide. There are vehicle tracks to the backing five beaches, but apart from some patches of cleared grazing land, there is no development. West Hill (North) beach (1192) borders the northern side of some higher ground that is part of the spine of bedrock running out toward the large West Hill Island. The beach is 2.3 km long, faces east-north-east and consists of a crenulate, low energy beach. It is attached to the bedrock in the east, while to the west it becomes a low spit extending into the bay. There is a shack settlement just around the eastern end, from which the beach is accessible on foot.
