The Sinanishko Lake (Bulgarian: Синанишко езеро) is a lake in Pirin, southwestern Bulgaria, situated below the Sinanitsa Peak in the small Sinanitsa Cirque at an altitude of 2181 m. With depth of 11,5 m it is among the 10 deepest lakes in the mountain. It has an elongated shape (175x80 m) and an area of 10,1 decares. Its waters pour out under the ground but they appear on the surface 120 m away from the lake and form the beginning of the Sinanishka River which is a left tributary of the Vlachina river.
