Also - here's some stuff I found doing research. The deepest part of that particular body of water (Timor Sea) around Bali is something called the Java Trench (the Marianas Trench is over by the Philippines - which is the deepest known location on earth at around 6 1/2 miles deep)... anyway... the deepest part of the Java Trench is around 4 1/2 miles deep. Java is the island just to the west of Bali. The Java Trench is located between these islands and Australia, where two plates collide. 4 1/2 miles is VERY deep.
