I will be visiting Greece end of May, and probably I will try to find some places for spearfishing. Could you suggest any good places near Athens?

Also I am not familiar with water temperature there at the beginning of summer. What should be the thickness of my wetsuit? I could either take a 3mm standard wetsuit with me or a freediving suit (1.5mm). Let me know what you think...
 
If you can make it early June it will be better. Spearfishing in Greece is prohibited during May .That does not keep me off, I just risk an approximate 300 € penalty. I know our laws are nothing but reasonable.. In the areas near Athens (-+ 100km) sea temperature will be from 16-18 C , so I would go for the 3mm option. Good options would be Saronic Gulf's islands like Poros and Hydra.

Well, I'm going to Keffalonia in July - so I'd like to hear, have you been there and what your impressions about freediving places?
How was the water?
