Accessed via a short bridge from Gosford, this tiny island (population just over 1,000) offers a rare chance to escape the bustle of city life without sacrificing convenience. Waterfront homes line the calm canals, making it a haven for boating enthusiasts, kayakers, and anglers. The island's quiet streets are perfect for leisurely walks or bike rides, with sweeping views of the surrounding waterways and distant hills. Pelicans and black swans glide past as you explore the small local park or picnic by the water's edge. Though there are no major tourist attractions, the charm lies in its unhurried pace and natural beauty. A short drive brings you to the shops, restaurants, and railway station of Gosford, or you can head to nearby Bouddi National Park for coastal bushwalks. St Hubert's Island is ideal for travellers seeking a peaceful base to explore the Central Coast, with easy access to Sydney (about 1.5 hours by car or train). Whether you're mooring your boat or simply soaking up the tranquil atmosphere, this hidden gem rewards those who slow down.",[10,13,15],{"key":11,"value":12},"Police","000",{"key":14,"value":12},"Ambulance",{"key":16,"value":12},"Fire",[18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51],{"key":19,"value":20},"Do I need a visa to visit Australia?","Most visitors require a visa; check the Australian Department of Home Affairs website for eligibility.",{"key":22,"value":23},"What currency is used?","Australian Dollar (AUD).
