Cairns North is a coastal suburb of Cairns in the Cairns Region, Queensland, Australia. In the 2011 census, Cairns North had a population of 4,444 people. airns North is bounded by the Cairns Airport to the north, the Coral Sea to the east and Lily Creek to the west. As the name suggests, it is immediately north of the Cairns central business district. Highway 1 (part of the main route around the Australian coast) passes through the suburb on Sheridan Street.[3] The suburb is flat land just above sea level. Parkland and an esplanade separate the developed areas of the suburb from the sea. At high tide there is a small sandy beach but low tide reveals an extensive suburb has a mix of uses having both permanent and holiday residential (the latter being mostly close to the shore), commercial buildings and community facilities, including a number of schools, Cairns Hospital, the Tobruk Memorial swimming pool and the now closed cemetery in McLeod Street.
