OCEAN ZONES
Picture
Epipelagic Zone (The Sunlight Zone)

The Epipelagic Zone is less than 200 meters deep.  The Epipelagic Zone is called the Sunlight Zone because there is sunlight and plants can photosynthesize.

Mesopelagic Zone (The Twilight Zone)

The Mesopelagic Zone is from 200 to 1000 meters deep.  The Mesopelagic Zone is also called the twilight zone because there is a little sunlight but not enough for plants to photosynthesize.

Bathypelagic Zone (The Midnight Zone)

The Bathypelagic Zone is from 1000 to 4000 meters deep.  The Bathypelagic Zone is also called the Midnight Zone because no sunlight can penetrate to that depth.

Abyssopelagic Zone (The Abyss)

The Abyssopelagic Zone is from 4000 to 6000 meters deep.  The Abyssopelagic Zone also has no sunlight.

Hadal Zone (The Trenches)

The Hadal Zone is 6000 meters and deeper.  Most deep sea trenches are in the Hadal Zone.
