The Perky Ent is right. I also posed this question and got much the same answer. The whole of Beleriand sunk beneath the sea, but a few mountain chains and the area now known as Lindon are still above sea level. I know of a link that shows a pretty good draw up of it. Try this .
The brown line is the coast of Beleriand, and the puke green one shows the coast after the breaking. Hope that helps.

It was mainly the Sindar that stayed, cause that was there home, but some noldor stayed cause they liked it i guess, or felt they couldn't be forgiven back home...

Well, he kinda did. It the beginning, with the two lamps, and the valar living on an island, everything else was middle earth, and he was there. But that really doesn't count. Never mind....
