Lake Lanutavake ( French: Lac Lanutavake) is a small crater lake surrounded by jungle on the southwest side of Wallis (Uvea) in the Pacific. It lies to the northeast of Fineveke. [1] Like Lake Lalolalo, there is a rumor that the US military dumped equipment in the lake at the end of World War II.

The archaeological site Tonga Toto is located close to the lake. [3]
