Scaling The Depths
Click on the image below. It shows the magnitude of the deepest known place in the oceans, the Mariana Trench of the South Pacific, to scale. It's amazing to think of how much of our biosphere is below the surface of the oceans. Something like 97% of all habitable volume on the Earth is underwater.

The trench is actually north of the Equator. It is more precise to say that it is in the Western Pacific.
Deep. Oh, and to me anything south of Portland, OR is South Pacific!
Saipan is correcto! My bad.
