'''Giant Skewer Tower''' ('''Giant Spike Pillar Tower''' in the PAL version) or '''{{world|Waters|tower}}''', is the [[Tower]] course of [[Sparkling Waters]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It is unlocked via [[Tropical Refresher]], and completing the Tower unlocks [[Haunted Shipwreck]], and a cutscene of [[Princess Peach's Castle#New Super Mario Bros. U|Peach's Castle]] being completely shrouded in [[Kamek]]'s tornado. However, the cutscene will not play if [[Freezing-Rain Tower]] is completed beforehand.

Similarly to [[World 4-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4-Castle]] of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', this is a water course filled with spiked pillars. The first part of the Tower is underwater, and the most prominent obstacle are giant spiked pillars which thrust forward periodically. [[Dry Bones]] are the only enemies in the Tower.

Another Boom Boom is the boss of the tower. [[Kamek]] will fly in and give him the ability to jump. Unlike in [[Stoneslide Tower|the second round]], however, this Boom Boom keeps his spin attack, even after getting stomped on.

*'''Star Coin 1''': Where the first spiked pillar is, Mario must go to the wall on the left for the first [[Star Coin]].

*'''Star Coin 3''': Same as Star Coin 2, only this one is above a spiked pillar. The star coin can also be obtained via [[POW Block]].
