You must arrange for transport from one of the local boats to come and retrieve you for a fee. It is a several mile trip in an outrigger canoe with outboard motor over open water, swells can be large and you can expect to be sprayed with saltwater throughout the trip (wear sunglasses). The boats will generally meet you at Zamboanguita where the Malatapay Wednesday market is held. Take a jeepny from Dumagete, just ask the driver or the guy who collects fees off the back of the jeepny to warn you when it is your stop.
It can also be arranged through Apo Island Resort to go from Dumagete to Malatapay-Dauin, and from there directly to the island.
If you want to stay near the pier in Dumagete, the Coco Grande Hotel is only 1 minute away.
