Actually, the Grey Havens are not unassailable, and were, I believe, attacked several times by the forces of Sauron. They were not really a heaven (though they were a haven [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ) for Elves, but rather a place from which to begin the journey to the Undying Lands, the Elven equivalent (in a very loose sense of the word) to Heaven.
