Geography

Bambaroo has two distinct parts geographically.[3]

The centre and north-east is low-lying flat land (approx 20 metres above sea level), drained by numerous small creeks which flow into the Coral Sea in neighbouring Orient and Coolbie. This freehold land is predominantly used to grow sugarcane. A cane tramway delivers harvested sugarcane to the local sugar mills at Victoria Plantation and Macknade.[3]

Abswold is a neighbourhood within the north-east of the locality (Шаблон:Coord).[4]

The Bruce Highway and the North Coast railway line both enter the locality from the east (Coolbie) and exit to the north (Yuruga) travelling through this flat part of the locality. Historically, three railway stations serviced the locality (from north to south):

The south-western part of the locality is mountainous and undeveloped, rising up to 980 metres above sea level. This land is protected as Paluma Range National Park.[3]
