Well all the coconut yoghurts I've seen are high in syns. How about taking a vanilla yoghurt and adding some coconut essence? There is a thread in the recipe section on substitutes for coconut milk and you'll find links to sites where you can buy it.
 
For once it looks like I have the best choice in France! I can get several brands of fat free, no added sugar coconut yoghurts. One brand is "Sveltesse" which I believe to be Shape - it's either Danone or Nestlé (not sure which) so maybe have a look at these brands in the UK. Otherwise, as has been suggested, coconut essence in plain or vanilla yoghurt or fromage frais (& sweetener if necessary)
 
i tried them yogurts in asda ona taster stand they r lovely but i looked at calorie counted and theres over 100 cals in each one can't remeber how many gonna go look on sw online if i can remeber password
 
When at Morrisons yesterday I saw Onken Coconut yoghurt but didn't get it as thought it would be high in syns, I've just been on SW &

thanks guys! actually meant to post it on the main board but love that i got replies here anyway :)

its a shame they don't make syn free ones here i know i would certainly buy them! maybe try the onken as a treat and make sure i don't eat it all at once lol! or try to get some coconut essence! thanks for the advice!

I looked up the nutritional information on daily plate for one pot of Perle du Lait coconut and put the details into the syns calulator. As it's not low fat, I don't think it contains any healthy extras. It came up at 7 1/2 syns for all three days.
