An abyssal plain is an underwater plain on the deep ocean floor, usually found at depths between 3000 and 6000 m. Lying generally between the foot of a continental rise and a mid-ocean ridge, abyssal plains cover more than 50% of the Earth âs surface.They are among the flattest, smoothest and least explored regions on Earth.ying generally between the foot of a continental rise and a mid-ocean ridge, abyssal plains cover more than 50% of the Earth âs surface.

There are also isolated volcanic mountains called sea mounts, and some black smokers, but most of this area is flat and featureless. To a surface dweller the abyssal plain is an intimidating environment. At best, light penetrates the ocean for only about 200 meters (less than 600 feet). Below that there is a twilight zone of very faint light, and by 1000 meters the ocean, and the plain below it, is in total darkness.
