Selvagem Pequena Island ({{convert|800|x|500|m}}) is an island in the southeast group of the Savage Islands, Madeira, Portugal. It is the southernmost major island of Portugal (excluding islets). Its fauna and flora are well-preserved due to lack of human interference.

In the 1890 book The Cruise of the Alerte, the island was called the 'Great Piton'.

It has an active lighthouse.[http://www.lhdepot.com/database/uniquelighthouse.cfm?value=6361 Lighthouse Depot - Selvagem Pequena Light] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070310212121/http://www.lhdepot.com/database/uniquelighthouse.cfm?value=6361 |date=2007-03-10 }}
