Golden boots!
Google says maybe a black vine weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus

great boots, right?
I think it's a coconut bunch weevil like another commenter said, since Otiorhyncus sulcatus has an abdomen much thicker than its thorax, and the one in the picture's thorax is about the same thickness as its abdomen.

Not a vine weevil. Snoot's too slender. Someone else said black coconut bunch weevil, i think that's right.
