In Salamis the almost the whole Athenian hoplite complement alongside with Platean and Thespian refuges fought as marines.

Usually most cities recruited their marines from the coastal populations.
Even the middle class hoplites of these areas made their livelihood from the sea and had some form of "sea experience".

Cretan archers were available as mercenaries and some poorer citizens might use bows although slingers would be a greater propability as native missile troops.

As for Dorydrepanon check this:

Click on image and a guy with a strange weapon is rather visible.
Kind regards
