The Raeffsky Islands, also called the Raevski Islands, are a subgroup of the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia, roughly at the center of the main Tuamotu atoll cluster. The group includes the uninhabited atolls of Hiti, Tepoto and Tuanake, and takes its name from Nikolay Raevsky, a Russian general of the Napoleonic Wars.
