Air transport can reach the area; however, the cost of travel is very expensive and only serves the route Denpasar-Wakatobi with every 11 day schedule. The next option is to the city of Kendari, then into Bau-Bau using fast boat for 5-6 hours. From Bau-Bau, crossed over to Wakatobi using a wooden boat for a day and was definitely very tiring. Another point that is often used from Bau-Bau is to travel overland to Lasalimu, in the southeastern district of Bau-Bau, about three hours and subsequently crossed over to Wakatobi. Ferry schedules once a day, at 06:00.
Happy adventuring.
