No, there were no Elves there. It was a long deserted harbour, from the days of the great Númenoreans, and it had nothing to do with Elves at all. Maybe Ghazi had mixed it up with Edhellond in Gondor, which was the harbour from where Elves (Nimrodel among others) were leaving before it eventually too became abandoned and forgotten.
