According to the Appendices, in ROTK, it says that Legolas built a refuge near Ithilien for the Elves that did not want to leave, they deminished and were only remembered in songs and tales, as men could no longer see them. Celeborn built a refuge East of Lothlorien for the Noldor that remained. I like to think that some elves remained till Arwen went to die at Cerin Amroth, as i do not think that Elrond, Galadriel, and Celeborn would have left her completely alone. Legolas sailed to the Havens in a ship he built, Gimli went with him, after the death of Aragorn, they were the last of the fellowship to leave middle earth.
