Agnew Lake is a lake in the Sudbury District, Ontario, Canada. Its area is 2,940 hectares and its shoreline is 210 kilometers long.

The lake is located primarily in the municipalities of Sables-Spanish Rivers, Baldwin and Nairn and Hyman, although its easternmost end enters the city limits of Greater Sudbury near High Falls. The lake has been the site of varied mining activity, including drilling for diamonds in the earlier half of the 20th century and for uranium in the latter half.[1]
