About Raphia Palm Monument

Raphia Palm Monument, located near Kosi Bay in northern KwaZulu-Natal, is home to the rare and majestic Kosi palm (Raphia australis), the southernmost species of its genus. Visitors can explore the grove’s unique wetland habitat, observing towering palms with the largest leaves of any tree. Notably, the palms flower only once between 20 and 40 years of age before dying, and their fruits are a vital food source for the palm-nut vulture.
