Getting there

Car

If you are travelling by car, start from the main town in Pulau Wakatobi, which is Wanci. From Wanci, head south on the main road towards South Wangi-Wangi. The journey will take approximately 30-40 minutes depending on traffic conditions. Follow the signs that indicate 'Kambode Island'. Once you reach the southern coastline, you will need to park your car at the nearest public parking area before proceeding to the next transport method.

Boat

After parking your car, you will need to take a boat to Kambode Island. Look for local boat operators at the pier; they usually operate small longboats or motorboats that can take you to the island. The cost for a round trip is typically around IDR 150,000 to IDR 200,000 per person. The boat ride takes about 20-30 minutes. Make sure to negotiate the price beforehand and confirm the schedule for your return trip.

Public Transportation

If you prefer public transportation, you can take a local minibus (angkot) from Wanci to South Wangi-Wangi. This will cost you around IDR 10,000 to IDR 20,000. Once you arrive at South Wangi-Wangi, follow the signs to the nearby dock where you can catch a boat to Kambode Island. Again, the boat fare will be similar to the private boat option, so be prepared for the same costs and travel time.
