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

If you mean "water level" as in where for an isolated level you're swimming, but not the entire game, super Mario Bros might be it

Released in 1985, about a year and a half after Pitfall II.
