Wash all the fruit thoroughly under cold water and pat dry.
Hull and slice the strawberries into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Cut the pineapple into small bite-sized chunks by peeling, coring, and chopping it.
Cut the watermelon into bite-sized chunks, discarding the rind.
Remove the stems from the red and green grapes, and leave them whole or slice them in half if preferred.
Peel the kiwi and slice them into thin rounds, then cut the rounds in half.
Peel the oranges, remove the white pith, and section them into bite-sized pieces.
Place all the prepared fruit into a large serving bowl and gently toss to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and lime juice until well mixed. Pour the honey-lime dressing over the fruits.
Gently toss the fruit and dressing together to coat evenly without crushing the fruit.
Finely chop the mint leaves and sprinkle them over the fruit salad for a fresh touch.
Refrigerate the fruit salad for at least 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled.
