Peel the pineapple, remove the core, and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the mangoes, slice the flesh away from the pit, and dice into chunks. Add to the bowl with the pineapple.
Cut the papaya in half and scoop out the seeds. Peel and dice the flesh, then add to the mixing bowl.
Peel the kiwis and slice them into thin rounds or half-moons. Add to the fruit mixture.
Peel the bananas and slice them into thin rounds. Gently toss these into the bowl to avoid bruising.
Wash the strawberries, hull them, and slice them into halves or quarters, depending on size. Add to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice and honey until well combined.
Drizzle the lime-honey dressing over the fruit and gently toss until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the shredded coconut over the salad for a touch of tropical sweetness.
Refrigerate the fruit salad for at least 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld together before serving.
Serve chilled, garnished with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing touch.
