This is an example of being Driven to Suicide in which a character walks or swims into a body of water, such as an ocean, lake or river, and drowns in it. This usually happens at nighttime for a calm, allegedly "painless" death. The sea, befitting this mood, will more often than not be relatively calm. This trope may evoke despair, or quiet contemplation, or both. The scene itself may well include dialog using "drifting away" metaphors. Another version of this is Sailing into the Sunset, where the protagonist takes a small boat and heads to the blue seas with no intention of ever coming back. Death may not necessarily be due to drowning, but by exhaustion, sunstroke, dehydration or perishing in a storm. May overlap with Barefoot Suicide and/or Symbolic Serene Submersion. Note: This trope does not include examples of jumping into the sea, via cliff or bridge or such, as that evokes a different mood, and is usually more about hitting the water in any case. This is a Death Trope, so expect spoilers, marked and unmarked. noreallife |

The early color film The Toll of the Sea (a silent adaptation of Madame Butterfly) ends with the heroine Lotus Flower committing suicide this way, in place of the original story's suicide by dagger. In the film's original release, the final scene allegedly showed her walking into the sea, but those frames have since been lost and replaced with simple shots of waves at sunset, along with an intertitle implying her fate. | |

Referenced in the Bojack Horseman episode "Downer Ending". While incredibly high on numerous substances, Bojack, Todd and Sabrina insist that Bojack's autobiography have an ending. Bojack suggests an apparent long time thought, when he's too old he'll just swim out into a lake until he's too weak to swim anymore and let the water take him. His companions' response gives the episode title. | |

Yasu/Beatrice from Umineko: When They Cry committed suicide in Ep 8 by jumping into the sea to repent for his/her actions that led to the massacre on Rokkenjima. Battler tried to follow after but survived and lost his memory due to brain damage. After being rescued he instead took on the name Tooya Hashijo essentially symbolizing Battler joining Beatrice in her final catbox at the bottom of the sea. | |

This is what happens at the beginning of Father and Daughter, if one takes the opening scene literally—the father gives his daughter a goodbye hug, steps into a rowboat, and rows away into the ocean, never to be seen again. However, an equally likely interpretation is that the whole scene (and the whole cartoon) is a metaphor for death and remembrance. | |

When his ship gets stuck on a becalmed ocean, a young officer in Master and Commander is accused of being a "Jonah", i.e. someone whose actions have brought some kind of divine curse onto the ship to prevent it from going anywhere. The guilt for fearing this is true, combined perhaps with a fear of what his shipmates will do if the weather doesn't change, he bids farewell to his friend during night watch duty, grabs a cannon ball and jumps overboard. | |

Lodge 49: Dud and Liz's father disappeared while surfing at night some years prior to the events of the series, and while officially his possible death was ruled an accident, its an Open Secret that he probably committed suicide via this trope (he was suffering severe financial and emotional problems at the time, on top of having been widowed). For most of season one, Dud refuses to accept this, insisting that his father was actually killed by a shark attack. In the season finale, he finally comes to terms with it, decides to honor his father by surfing in the spot where he died, and is immediately attacked by a shark. | |

And as far as the mages know, your soul cannot pass to the afterlife in either case. She treats it as a Better to Die than Be Killed situation, and runs to the nearby sea to let herself drown in it while the rest of the crew is distracted. | |

It isn't 100% clear whether this was intentional or if Hayley was just too drunk to realize what she was doing when she walked into the ocean. Either way, after she washes up on the beach, she admits that struggling against the waves made her realize that she wanted to live. | |

However, she pretends to go throw herself in the ocean as atonement, setting her sandals down beside her and rushing toward the edge of the island to a long drop below, which immediately changes the tune of every person mad at her to frantically trying to save her life and offering her what she desires, only for Nami to instantly drop the charade and strike a sneaky bargain. | |

The Plague Dogs: Two dogs that escape from a research laboratory, Rowf and Snitter, try to live as feral dogs. However, when animal control and the police converge upon the two dogs in an attempt to recapture them, Rowf and Snitter swim out to sea rather than go back to the horrors of the lab. In the book the author decides to save them by a Deus ex Machina. In the film adaption it is ambiguous, it seems like they die, but the end credits hint that they could have made it to an island, though the song implies they died and went to heaven. | |

Long before the events of Ozma of Oz, King Ev sold his wife and kids to the Nome King in exchange for a longer life. He didn't realize until after the fact how horrible what he did was, and since he couldn't do anything to get them back, he threw himself into the ocean, wasting the very thing he'd sold his family for. | |

Playing Silent Hill 2 in a reckless manner (taking on extra damage and not healing it quickly) and frequently examining Angela's knife in your inventory (which she gave to James because she implicitly was contemplating suicide with it) gives you the "In Water" ending, which is pretty much what it sounds like: James is unable to move on or forgive himself for killing Mary despite her urging him to, so he loads her body into his car and drives both of them into Toluca Lake to be Together in Death. | |

An ambiguous example in 1912 film The Land Beyond the Sunset. Joe, a ragged urchin regularly beaten by his abusive grandmother, lives in a filthy New York slum. He gets a ticket from the Fresh Air Fund for a trip to the country and an afternoon of fresh, clean air. While there, a guide reads a fairy tale to the children in which a boy sails away with the fairies to "the land beyond the sunset." Joe finds an abandoned rowboat and decides to imitate the story—by sailing off into the open ocean in his rowboat, without food or water, without even an oar. The film leaves the viewer to contemplate whether Joe is actually committing suicide or if he's sailing to "the land beyond the sunset" as in the fairy tale. | |

The Young Man From Atlanta: Bill parked his car by a lake one day, walked out into the lake until he could no longer touch bottom, and drowned. His mother insists on calling it an accident, but as a sarcastic neighbor reminds her, Bill could not swim and was hardly likely to go out swimming in a lake. | |

However, as a proper investigation would implicate the protagonists, Mike stages his death to appear as one of these by planting his car and shoes near a beach along with traces of cocaine to make it seem like Howard had a drug-addled mental breakdown and decided to walk into the ocean after being outed as an addict and losing one of the biggest cases of his career. | |

In The Secret World, this is a recurring event related to Solomon Island: It happened en masse when the Fog that followed the returning Lady Margaret swept over Kingsmouth Town, most of the inhabitants walked into the sea and drowned—only to return as a horde of zombies to prey on the survivors. This is the final fate of Tyler Freeborn. Driven to find answers, he dons a respirator and walks into a shallow strait, intent on pushing through to whatever is at the heart of the Fog and knowing that he won't be returning. The tragic end of the Norsemen who saved the Wabanaki during the Darkness War. Exposed to the Filth, they returned home only to succumb to madness and disease, leaving their blighted villages behind as they marched into the sea to serve their new masters. |

This is referenced in By the Sea. It never actually occurs, but there are several moments where Obi-Wan ideates suicide by way of the sea in his narration after meeting the merman Cody. He draws parallels between his sinful love of Cody and death in the mermaid stories that he tells Cody, such as how the mermaid dissolves with the sea foam at the end of Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid, and how the sirens sing sailors to their deaths in The Odyssey. | |

The ABCs of Death: The "G" segment follows an unseen protagonist he weighs himself down with bricks, paddles out into the ocean, and sinks to the bottom; his surfboard sticking upright out of the water like a gravestone. | |

In Kingdom (2007), Simon Kingdom walked into the sea some time before the series started, and Peter struggles to come to terms with his death throughout the first series. Simon actually survived and lived under the identity of a deceased client for some time before returning to Market Shipborough in the second series. | |

The opening of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex's third episode features one of the "Jeri" androids which have began committing suicide doing so by walking into a pool (and short circuiting instead of drowning, but it's played out the same way). | |

Mercy Thompson: Mercy's adopted father committed suicide by drowning when she was a teenager. This unsurprisingly left a very profound mark on her. It's apparently a common form of suicide among older werewolves: werewolves have very low body fat and extremely dense muscles, so they sink like rocks in water. | |

On an episode of Baywatch, lifeguard Eddie has to rescue a guy who's hell-bent on doing this. His girlfriend's reaction of "Oh, no. Not another one", indicates that this is a problem that the guards often have to deal with (probably in real life also). | |

In Elfen Lied, Mayu was very likely about to drown herself this way when she first encountered Wanta. Caring for the small dog kept her going until better times finally came. In the manga, Yuka, despondent over Kouta's feelings for Nyu, was possibly contemplating this until he made his affection for her plain, even slapping the tsundere for making him worry so much about her. Using tsundere logic, this confirmed to her that he cared for her. | |

In the climax of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Kayla Silverfox is mortally wounded, while Logan is shot in the head with an adamantium bullet. Knowing that his memory will be gone when he wakes up from this, Kayla opts to for a Dying Declaration of Love to his unconscious body, with the feint hope that he will remember some part of her, then calmly walks into the nearby Susquehanna River as she slowly bleeds to death. She never resurfaces, and Logan wakes up without any memory of her and calmly walks away. | |

Happens twice in the spinoff miniserieses of The White Vault In Artifact, Marion Sutton is influenced by the titular artifact to walk into the ocean, where her body is later found. Dr. Flores in Iluka chooses to jump off the boat into the ocean once it becomes clear that he is turning into the same sort of murderous creature that his lab assistant Franco became. |

In Hollow Knight, it's implied that Quirrel does this, after he assists you in killing his mentor, and in the process regains his lost memories. Exhausted by his newly realized age and believing his journey over, he sits calmly on the shore of Blue Lake until the player speaks to him there, then disappears, leaving his blade behind in the beach. The achievement you receive for speaking to him there all but confirms it. | |
