Ravai Fatiaki (born 1 March 1987) is a Fijian rugby union player who plays for Leicester Tigers in England's Premiership Rugby. He made his international debut for Fiji in 2009 against Japan.

He plays as a centre or fly-half.

Along with Iliesa Keresoni, Fatiaki was a member of the 2006 Lelean Memorial School Under 19 Dream Team that won the Fiji Secondary Schools' Rugby Union championship Deans Trophy.[citation needed]
