Details
240 Coins are needed only for the charter ship; the Karamja lodestone is no cost. Juju teleport spiritbag cost can be eliminated using the witchdoctor mask. Coconuts grow on palm trees, and they're used to make coconut milk, used in high-level Herblore. They're also used to pay farmers to look after magic trees. Once a palm tree has grown fully, it can be harvested repeatedly, with a coconut growing back every 45 minutes for a maximum of six. Harvest the coconuts and note them with the tool leprechaun at any patch if inventory becomes full.


If possible, you should use a giant ent familiar, which has a 50% chance of doubling the yield of coconuts, giving you an average of 9 coconuts per patch instead of 6. That makes this method work well with other harvesting money makers, like picking cactus spines.
