Amroth, King of Lorien, jumped in the water to swim to shore in search of his love, Nimrodel. From
History of Galadriel and Celeborn in Unfinished Tales:
Quote:
|
Crying aloud and in despair Nimrodel! he leapt into the sea and swam towards the fading shore. The mariners with their Elvish sight for a long time could see him battling with the waves, until the rising sun gleamed through the clouds and far off lit his hair like a spark of gold. No eyes of Elves or Men ever saw him again in Middle-earth.

So, unless he swam all the way to the Undying Lands (unlikely given his intended destination), it would seem that he drowned and his spirit went to the Halls of Mandos.
Edit: This should be in Books, unless its been asked already.
