Prepare the fruits: Peel and dice the pineapple into small bite-sized chunks. Peel and dice the mango. Peel and slice the golden kiwis into rounds or half-moons. Dice the peach or nectarine, and slice the banana just before mixing to prevent browning.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and fresh lime juice until well combined to form the dressing.
In a large serving bowl, gently combine all the prepared fruits: pineapple, mango, golden kiwi, peach (or nectarine), and banana.
Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the fruit mixture and gently toss to coat the fruit evenly.
If desired, sprinkle with freshly chopped mint leaves for added flavor and visual appeal.
Serve the fruit salad immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving. Mix gently again before serving if refrigerated.
