It completely depends on where you are paddling. If you are in the middle of Greece on calm warm water, you could just wear a swimsuit (although sunburn is always a potential issue!)
Here in the UK, our waters are a lot colder than the Mediterranean. Most stand-up paddlers tend to wear wetsuits – 5/4mm in the winter and 3/2mm in the summer. It just depends on the water temperature.
Some places require buoyancy aids to be worn at all times on the water – particularly if it is a supervised lake. Make sure you check what the local rules are before heading out.
