Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place a large skillet on a burner set to medium high heat. Add coconut and stir frequently until golden brown and fragrant. Set aside on a separate plate to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together margarine, shortening, sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Add in eggs and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir into creamed mixture. Add in coconut and stir. Mix in chocolate chips.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop dough onto a baking sheet by large tablespoonfuls. Bake for 9-10 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle each cookie with sea salt. Bake an additional 1 minute. Remove from oven to cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes, then to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store remaining dough in the refrigerator between batches.
