Edmonton is 14kms south of the Cairns City Centre. Edmonton is serviced by two shopping centres at Piccones Supa IGA and Coles Sugarworld. It also has a public pool, a public primary school with two others located (nearby) in the next suburbs. Edmonton is also home to Sugarworld Gardens and Waterslides however the latter is currenly closed until further notice. Edmonton has two hotels, the Historic Hambledon Hotel and opposite the Grafton Hotel. The Fuller Park Community Club is also open for Drinks, Meals, Pokies and often have major promotions as well as having a sizable lawn bowling fraternity. For sports buffs, local junior soccer is available at Centenary Comets. Rugby League both Senior and Junior with the Edmonton Storm RLC. For the AFL followers, the South Cairns Cutters AFC have both Senior and Junior Clubs and are located at Fretwell Park, Robert Rd in Bentley Park (next suburb north). The Cutters also have a club which is open 7 days. So basically Edmonton has everything on offer. I have had no problems thus far and think it is quite handy to everything and far enough away for a bit of peace and quiet. If you enjoy looking at the mountains from your backyard, this is the place to be.
