Pakshipitti or Pitti-island is an uninhabited coral islet in the Union Territory of Lakshadweep, India. The island is low and arid and, lacking adequate anchorage points, of difficult accessibility. (There is another island with the same name in Lakshadweep which is part of the Kalpeni Atoll.) Pakshipitti or Pitti-island is 300 x 200 m in size and devoid of vegetation. There is a dark rock on the eastern side and several stone cairns.

Pitti is located at the southern end of Pitti Bank, a largely submerged atoll, the same bank as Amini Island
