Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
-
Combine water, sugar, corn syrup and salt in a small saucepan.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat.

In a medium-sized, heat-proof bowl, combine shredded coconut and hot syrup, stirring until evenly distributed. Let mixture cool for 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a separate bowl, whisk egg whites and vanilla extract together until foamy and thick.

Use a cookie scoop to scoop out mounds of the coconut mixture. You want golf-ball sized mounds. Space the macaroons 2 inches apart.
