'''Sparkling Waters''' is a location introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.
'''Sparkling Waters''' is the tropical world in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. Players can reach it by moving south from the end of [[Layer Cake Desert]], or via the secret exit in [[Soda Jungle]]. Sparkling Waters lies east of [[Acorn Plains]], south-east from [[Layer-Cake Desert]], south from [[Frosted Glacier]], and west from [[Soda Jungle]]. Sparkling Waters is in an ocean filled with multiple islands and having bubbling water geysers, which is quite similar to [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros Wii]]'' as that tropical world also had multiple islands. The world's name is possibly a reference to [[wikipedia:Carbonated_water|carbonated water]]. There are 7 levels in this world, consisting of 5 normal levels, the [[Fortress]] level and the [[Castle]] level. The boss of this world is [[Larry Koopa]].

*'''Sparkling Waters-1: [[Waterspout Beach]]''': It features [[Huckit Crab]]s and water geysers.
Sparkling Waters is the third world of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and their [[reissue]]s included in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''. The player can reach it by moving south from the end of [[Layer-Cake Desert]]. Sparkling Waters lies east of [[Acorn Plains]], south-east from Layer-Cake Desert, south from [[Frosted Glacier]], west from [[Soda Jungle]] and [[Rock-Candy Mines]] and south-west from [[Meringue Clouds]] and [[Peach's Castle (world)|Peach's Castle]]. Sparkling Waters is an archipelago with bubbling [[water spout]]s, which is quite similar to [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 3]] from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' as that tropical world also had multiple islands. It is one of two of the worlds that the player can choose from after beating [[Morton Koopa Jr.]] in [[Morton's Compactor Castle]] ([[Morton's Lava-Block Castle]] in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''), the other being [[Frosted Glacier]]. Because of this, it is quite possible to play through the game without ever reaching Sparkling Waters. This world's name is possibly a reference to [[wikipedia:Carbonated water|carbonated water]]. There are 9 levels in this world, consisting of 5 normal levels, a haunted shipwreck, a secret level, and the [[Tower]] and [[Castle]] level. There is a [[Balloon Baby Yoshi]] between [[Above the Cheep Cheep Seas]] and [[Urchin Shoals]]. The Tower boss is [[Boom Boom]] with a new [[jump]]ing ability and the Castle boss of this world is [[Larry Koopa]]. One color of each [[Toad House]] can be found here, along with the [[Secret Island]], seen just left of Sparkling Waters. In the underwater reef sections, red [[Cheep Cheep]]s can be seen in the background.
*'''Sparkling Waters-2: [[Tropical Refresher]]''': The second level of Sparkling Waters.
*'''Sparkling Waters-3: [[Above the Cheep Cheep Sea]]''': Presumably a level with a large growing beanstalk.
*'''Sparkling Waters-Tower: [[Giant Skewer Tower]]''': A tower level holding [[Fence]]s and [[Rocket Engine]]s.
*'''Sparkling Waters-4: [[Urchin Shoals]]''': The fourth level of Sparkling Waters includes [[Urchin]]s and water geysers.
*'''Sparkling Waters-5: [[Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto]]''': Introduces [[Dragoneel]], who follows and attacks the players.
*'''Sparkling Waters-Castle: [[Larry's Luminant Castle]]''': Contains climbing fences and [[Torpedo Ted]]s.
