I found these on Google Maps just south of Jupiter Island, are these ntuarally growing washed up coconuts? I think they really look cool.

Yup, those look like naturally growing coconuts, which is pretty awesome.

Beautiful!  I think there were probably some Mexican Talls like this 150 to 200 years ago at Boca Chica at the Rio Grande Delta!

South Florida has a lot of naturalized coconuts on the beaches. I heard once that Florida coconuts will land on Cape Hatteras and sprout, but die in the winter months.
