The deepest known point on Earth is at the bottom of the Mariana Trench, a depression in the floor of the western Pacific Ocean, just east of the Mariana Islands.
The Mariana Trench is 1,554 miles long and 44 miles wide. Near its southwestern extremity, 210 miles southwest of Guam, lies the deepest point on Earth. This point — referred to as the “Challenger Deep”— plunges to a depth of nearly 7 miles.

Yes is is the Mariana Trench, but I am not sure if it is in Guam. The really deep part of the Mariana trench according to the National Geographic's explorations, is located on the southernmost tip of the Palawan Island, in the Philippines. In that location, no submarine has reached the lowest part except a roving robot submarine tried, which again did not reach the bottom as the pressure is enormous. At those depths, the pressure is enough to crush even the most sophisticated bubble or sphere structures ever designed. They could only map the trench via satellite photos and radiograms.
