Belegaer, the Great Sea or the Sundering Seas, is the sea of Arda that is west of Middle-earth.[1]

Though Belegaer borders three sides of Middle-earth, it is currently only accessible in the game in the forms of the Ice Bay of Forochel in Forochel, and the Bay of Belfalas including Cobas Haven in Western Gondor and Central Gondor.
