Lake Tuakitoto is a small lake in South Otago, on the South Island of New Zealand. [1] It is located to the northeast of Balclutha, close to the small town of Kaitangata. [2] The smallest of South Otago's three main lakes, it is, like the others (Lake Waihola and Lake Waipori) very shallow. [3] The lake drains into the lower reaches of the Clutha River. [3]
