I think Super Mario Bros might have been the first. Might depend on what counts as a "platformer" or a "water level".

Anybody have one that predates Pitfall II: Lost Caverns (1984)?

Jungle Hunt was '82.

Huh... I see swimming through water in this video, but I don't see platforms.

A lot of water levels in Platformers have swimming instead of platforms like the entire rest of the game does

Sure, but I don't see platforms anywhere in that particular game.
