It's situated 2,100 kilometres to the north of Canberra, the country's capital.
In terms of sights, Kamerunga is jam-packed. Located 7 kilometres to the east, here you'll find the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, Mount Whitfield Conservation Park and the Centenary Lakes Botanic Gardens.
Clifton Beach and Palm Cove Beach should be towards the top of your list if you're after somewhere to enjoy ocean views.

Even on holiday, it can sometimes be a struggle to break away from the stresses and strains of life. If you'd like to really give your mind a break, leave your smartphone in the glovebox and explore the lovely scenery of Barron Falls Lookout.
If you can't imagine a holiday without some sports action, investigate the event schedule at Cazaly's Stadium. It's likely something will be on during your visit. You can find the venue 15 kilometres away in Parramatta Park.
There's even more just down the road. Kuranda, 8 kilometres to the north, is popular for the Tjapukai Aboriginal Cultural Park and the Kuranda Koala Gardens. Though, if the Flecker Botanic Gardens and the Tjapukai Cultural Park are more your thing, go 12 kilometres northeast from Speewah to Yorkeys Knob.
Spend a morning or afternoon wandering around the Cairns Regional Gallery, the Cairns Historical Society Museum and the Cairns Esplanade. All of these sights are near the middle of Cairns, 16 kilometres to the east. Need something else to do? Reef Fleet Terminal and the Cairns Convention Centre should also be on your travel plan.
With just a small amount of your holiday budget left in your wallet, be sure to stock up on some postcards of the gorgeous Tropical North Queensland region before it's time to say goodbye.
If you'll be travelling via air, you'll likely be using Cairns International Airport (CNS). It's 14 kilometres to the east. Pack up your bag, plan a convenient route and set that alarm clock!
