In the northwest Pacific Ocean, the Phillipine Sea is east and north of the Phillipines. It contains the deepest part of all the oceans, the Marianas Trench. It contains several island groups besides the Phillipines, such as the Mariana Islands.

During the Second World War, the Battle of the Philippine Sea, also known as the Marianas Turkey Shoot. A cruiser of the U.S. Navy's Ticonderoga-class, the USS Phillipine Sea, is named for the battle.
