6 Μαΐ 2021 · Learn about the average and maximum depths of the world's oceans and seas, and the locations of their deepest points. The Pacific Ocean is the deepest, with a maximum depth of 10,911 meters, followed by the Caribbean Sea and the Indian Ocean.
The maximum depth has been estimated to be 10,971 meters (35,994 ft). The British naval vessel Challenger II surveyed the trench in 1951 and named the deepest part of the trench the "Challenger Deep". In 1960, the Trieste successfully reached the bottom of the trench, manned by a crew of two men.
The average depth of the ocean is about 3,682 meters (12,080 feet). The lowest ocean depth on Earth is called the Challenger Deep and is located beneath the western Pacific Ocean in the southern end of the Mariana Trench.
Scientists say we now have the most precise information yet on the deepest points in each of Earth's five oceans. The key locations where the seafloor bottoms out in the Pacific, Atlantic,...

The exact depth of the Challenge Deep was discovered in 2021 thanks to remote-operated submersible vehicles. On average, the ocean is around 3.7km deep (3,688m to be exact), according to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
