Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion this is the sacroiliac joint where you feel you can dip the finger. Sometimes there is swelling , like deposition of fat, where a finger can be easily inserted. your feelings are very correct for the spot. This is normal.
