The Henty Dam is a small gravity dam across the Henty River, located in the West Coast region of Tasmania, Australia. The dam was completed in 1988 and the resultant reservoir, Lake Henty, established for the purpose of generating hydroelectricity as part of the proposed Anthony Power Development, that did not proceed in full, as planned.
