Depths are deep places in Subnautica.

Basics

The majority of the depths is covered by Grassy Plateaus, but there are many other biomes. Some of them are rare and other ones are very dangerous.

Deepest?

The Cyclops submarine can only go to the depth of 200 meters before starting to crush. There is a warning at 95 meters by the on board AI, but the Seamoth is a small compact sub built for speed and deep diving. The Seamoth is also somewhat fragile and uses up a lot of energy quickly. The deepest depth is currently unknown, although people have reported going past 100,000 meters, probably by making use of cheats, of the unfinished map design, and bugs.

Personal Logs:

"The main problem with going really deep in survival mode is the energy used on the Seamoth sub. The main problem is the return trip. When I visited 1300 meters deep it was very dark and the noises down there were eerie, and the energy I had used to that point was around 60%. I know I could have gone deeper... but running out of energy at the depth would have been instant death. The descent and ascent from those depths was about 10 minutes total from departing the Cyclops to re-coupling with it. If I had gone passed 50% energy on the descent I would not have made the return trip to the surface with enough energy in the Seamoth. And to play it "safe" I made sure I turned around at 60% in case of running into large creatures... which happens in the deep ocean. The picture shown is at the depth of 1203 meters, facing straight down. I used the edge of a trench wall as a guide. I was able to make it another 97 meters before calling it quits. (I have yet to die and I didn't want to die in a deep trench)." - TheCen

Confirmed--- 100,000 meter dive, possibility to dive further.
