Tåtøy or Tåtei is an island in Kragerø Municipality in Telemark county, Norway. The 1-square-kilometre (250-acre) island is located in the Kilsfjord, just to the south of the mainland town of Kragerø. The small island of Kragerø lies about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) to the northeast and the large island of Skåtøy lies about 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) to the east. The island is hilly and partly wooden. The highest point is the 96-metre (315 ft) tall Høgda.

There was a school on the island until 2012 when it was closed. Kragerø Fjordbåtselskap runs a scheduled ferry service between Tåtøy and Stabbestad (on the mainland to the south), to the island of Skåtøy, and to the mainland town of Kragerø to the north.
