Some of the southernmost wild palms in the world at Paparoa National Park on the South Island. This is a coastal cliff, ocean on other side of road. Near Pancake Rocks.

The terrain is all limestone, so there's caves, sinkholes. Surfing is possible in the area, but fairly big and definitely messy when I was there. |

Northern is a problem. I don't think that in the wild, any palms get very far north in China. They do grow up in the mountains (several species of Trachycarpus). Europe has Chamaerops around the Mediterranean, including southernmost France, so it likely is the "northernmost naturally occurring palm in the world". The northernmost North American palm is Sabal minor, which sneaks up the coast almost to Virginia. |
