The deep seabed, often referred to as the abyssal plain, generally lies at depths of about 3,000 to 6,000 meters (approximately 10,000 to 20,000 feet) below the ocean's surface. This region constitutes the majority of the ocean floor and is characterized by its flat, sediment-covered landscape. The exact depth can vary depending on the specific ocean basin and geographical features.

The deepest parts of the oceans are about how many km deep?
The deepest parts of the oceans, specifically the Mariana Trench, reach depths of approximately 11 kilometers (about 36,000 feet).
