Hollywood actor and martial arts master Jackie Chan was photographed on vacation in Cyprus on Monday. Chan was spotted by a group of fans as he boarded a boat on the idyllic beach of Latsi near Paphos on the island of Cyprus according to local media.

Latsi is known as one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, and in the entire Mediterranean. Even though Cyprus has long been an extremely popular destination for tourists from around the world, there are still many undiscovered spots on the island.

The stunning beach, which features sparkling turquoise waters, was even rated one of the best “secret beaches” in Europe, because it has not yet been discovered by most tourists.

So it’s no surprise that the world-famous actor decided to soak up the sun and take a swim at the pristine beach, which is far from the world of Hollywood. However, fans still did not miss a chance for a selfie as you ‘ll see in the following video:

Cyprus is one of the top vacation destinations in Europe, as it is home to incredible beaches with crystal clear waters, magnificent ancient sites from the country’s long history, and countless opportunities for fine dining and luxury accommodation.

Jackie Chan vacations in Cyprus

Jackie Chan was born into an extremely poor family of refugees from the Chinese Civil War in Hong Kong in 1954, and began training in martial arts from a very young age.

His tremendous talent in martial arts, along with his equally impressive acting abilities, pushed him to star in movies starting in the 1960s. Chan even starred in movies at the age of five as a child actor.

Jackie Chan soon became famous for his acrobatic style, which often included mind-bending stunts that the actor often performed himself, without the help of a stunt double.

The martial arts master’s fame extended out of China in the late 1980s, when he began to star in action movies in the US as well as in China.

When he acted alongside American comedian Chris Tucker in the 1998 buddy-cop film Rush Hour, which became a smash hit, Chan’s star power in the US exploded.

Throughout his long career, which spans decades and continents, Chan has acted in over 150 movies, many of them blockbusters.

The martial arts genius is also a trained opera vocalist, and has become a musical hit in Asia.

Chan is expected to star in a film titled “Project X-Traction” alongside professional wrestler and actor John Cena in 2021.

Due to his international popularity, Chan has long been recognized as one of the highest-paid actors in the world. In 2015, Forbes estimated his net worth to top $350 million.

Despite his significant wealth, Jackie Chan is also extremely charitable. The martial arts star prides himself on his philanthropic endeavors. He was labeled one of the top 10 most charitable celebrities by Forbes.
