Walking
If you are starting from the main beach area of Agia Marina, head east along the waterfront promenade towards Platanias. Walk past the various beach bars and restaurants until you reach the main road (E65). Cross the road and continue straight, following the signs to Chania. You will walk for about 15-20 minutes. As you approach the outskirts of Platanias, look for signs directing you to Galatas. Turn left onto the road that leads toward Galatas. After about 5 minutes, you will see a sign for the house of Mikis Theodorakis, which is located in a quiet area. The exact address is Γαλατά Γιάννη, Γ. Θεοδωράκη, Chania 731 00.
Public Transport (Bus)
From Agia Marina, you can catch a local bus heading towards Chania. Look for the KTEL bus stop, which is located near the main road (E65). Purchase a ticket from the kiosk or the driver (cost is approximately €1.50). Take the bus and get off at the 'Galatas' stop. From there, it's a short walk (about 10 minutes) to the house of Mikis Theodorakis. Walk towards the main road and then follow the signs leading to the house. This is a convenient option if you want to avoid walking long distances.
