The coconut palm tree is a widely-dispersed species due to special adaptations developed by its seed. The seed floats due to an internal air cavity. The coconut's external husk protects the internal seed from predators and the salt of the ocean. The coconut palm is one of the most successful of the ocean drifter species.

The coconut seed is specifically adapted to get dispersed by water. It is light and having an ability to float on water to reach land where they can germinate. The external husk protects inner part of the seed from predators and salts of oceans.
