List of lakes of Tamil Nadu

This article lists the lakes in the South Indian state, Tamil Nadu.

Note: Lakes grow and shrink due to precipitation, evaporation, releases, and diversions. For this reason, many of the surface areas tabulated below are very approximate. For reservoirs, the areas at maximum water storage are indicated. Reservoirs used for flood control are seldom allowed to reach maximum storage. +Name of the LakeDistrictGeological LocationType of LakeSizeHistoryAyanambakkam LakeChennaiChembarambakkam LakeChennaiChetput LakeChennaiChitlapakkam LakeChennaiChithra Mekha Thadakam LakeKancheepuramNear Mamandur CavesMahendra Verma PallavaKaduvetti LakeChennaiKaveripakkam LakeChennaiKilikodi LakeChennaiKolavai LakeChennaiKorattur LakeChennaiMaduranthakam lakeChennaiManali LakeChennaiManimangalam LakeChennaiNanmangalam LakeChennaiPanpakkam LakeChennaiPoondi LakeChennaiPorur LakeChennaiPattupalli LakeChennaiPulicat LakeChennaiPuzhal lakeChennaiRetteri LakeChennaiSholavaram LakeChennaiThiruninravur LakeChennaiVelachery LakeChennaiKodaikanal LakeKodaikanalOoty lakeOotyAvalanche Lake, OotyOotyEmerald Lake, OotyOoty
