What is the shallowest yet largest body of water that's not a salt flat?

Immediately, I thought the Sea of Azov. It's deepest point is usually regarded to be only 14 meters deep and it's enormous.

I also thought the brazilian coast of Amapa and Pará, that because of the sediment brought down by the amazon river, there's a huge platform of silt and sand north of the amazonian fan, that at some sections is just a couple of meters deep at kilometers from the shore.

Are there any lagoons, lakes, pools, bays, seas, reservoirs or any bodies of water you know of that are also extremely shallow(less than 50 - 100m depth) and extremely large(wide and/or long) at the same time?

What are some unique or unusual geographic formations in Europe?

I'm very curious about the world in general but I know less of Europe than I do the other continents.

I'd like to know what are the unique regions of Europe not many people talk about, unlike "The giant's causeway" or "cappadocia".

I've searched up a few but collective wisdom produces more results and better!
