The easiest and more comfortable way is by small plane: there is a company that flies from Ensenada to Guerrero Negro on Monday, Wendesday and Thursday at 11:30, it makes a stop at Isla de Cedros. The company is Aeroservicios Guerrero, and the phone number is +52 (615) 157 01 37.
To get to Ensenada you may fly to San Diego and take the bus at the station that is just across the border in Tijuana. There is also a bus that leaves from the airport in Tijuana each hour since 8:30 am and it arrives to Ensenada two hours later. You can also fly to Los Cabos or [wiki=279583571681a868005a5d7d3af9e0d4]Loreto[/wiki] via commercial airliner from the US.
Other way is to rent a car in Tijuana and make the 12 hour drive, it is a long drive but it is worth the trip, and it is cheaper if you are two or more people.
