An alarm system for a swimming pool or the like whereby small inexperienced children or animals are detected prior to entering the pool or after an unauthorized entry into the water of the pool. The invention comprises the use of a height sensing apparatus employing fibre optics and a logic circuit whereby an interruption of a pair of different elevations of light paths is accepted and the alarm remains silent and the interruption of the lowest light path only is reflected sounding an alarm. The invention further comprises the use of fibre optics and a movement sensor connected to the optics. Any impact on the water surface of the pool causes the sensor to change the state of the light transmission therethrough by transmitting or interrupting light transmission. This change of normal state activates the alarm. The invention still further comprises a wireless means for detecting a person in the pool water or a man overboard from a ship or the like and sounding an alarm.
