To reach the island, we took an early morning 4-hour bus ride from Manila to Mauban, Quezon and around 15-20 minutes boat ride. We took JAM Bus Liner in Pasay City because the ply directly to Mauban. After arriving at the bus terminal, we took a tricycle going to the public market to buy foods and other things needed for our island trip. If you decide to to visit the island, I suggest you buy enough water and food because it's quite expensive on the island. Also, bring power banks for your gadget because electricity has a rotating supply. It must also be noted that upon arrival on the island, it's better to have a tour guide from the dock site that will assist you to reach your resort destination.

Interestingly, there are a lot of things that can be done on the island. You can just lie down on the sand under the trees and feel the sea breeze. To maximize your relaxation period, do this right after lunch and let's see if you can resist in falling asleep.
You can stroll along the long stretch of white sand. One very interesting thing to do in Cagbalate Island is to stroll your war to the bonsai area. The area can only be reached during low tide. If you love taking pictures, you will definitely love the area as much as I did.
