This article relates to the works of the author J. R. R. Tolkien.

The Falmari (from the Quenya word falma, meaning [crested] wave), also known as the Sea-elves, were those of the Teleri who departed from Middle-earth and went into the West. They became known as the Sea-elves in the land of Aman, for they became enamoured with the sea and made music beside the breaking waves. So great were their numbers, they had two lords: Elwë Singollo (which signifies Greymantle) and his brother Olwë.
