I believe that the game will generate an "infinite" ocean if you go off the limits of the Middle-Earth map, but I'm not sure...

The actual limits of any Minecraft map are, as seen on the official Minecraft wiki:


 * It is very dangerous to reach X/Z ±4,000,000,000 or higher, as the chances of crashing (assuming you have 64-bit Java) are extremely high, and get higher the farther you go.
 * If one makes it to X/Z ±34,359,738,368 (chunk offset limit), chunks will start getting overwritten. As a result, this is the end of chunk generation in Minecraft. As soon as this limit is approached, the game will freeze and crash, resulting in a Out of memory screen. However in some cases the player may be able to move past this limit for a few seconds before Minecraft crashes.
 * The highest signed value for 64-bit machines is X/Z ±9,223,372,036,854,775,807. However, despite this being the limit any machine can go, it may not be possible to reach anywhere near this point, since the vast majority of people experience instant client freeze, followed by the client crashing. If teleported there, the screen will display completely black with no sun and oddly glowing clouds.

These were the numbers prior to vanilla B1.8, but I suspect that those limits still exist, because of Java number restrictions.
