[Elrian]

Tol Eressea was originally the island used by Ulmo to transport the Elven Kindres to Valinor. Osse had asked that it be left there after this was done, because then there would be Elves in his part of the sea. The island was not really settled until the beginning of the Second age by the remnants of Beleriand that sailed into the West. As it was part of the lands of the Valar that were removed from the circles of the World by Eru at the time of the destruction of Numenor, I wouldn't think any would be forbidden from journeying to Valinor proper, since those that dwelt there were not outcasts, if that were so they would not have been situated so close by being in the Bay of Eldamar. Ships coming in from Middle Earth would come to Tol Erresea before they would to Alqualonde.
