We study a continous-time quantum walk on a path graph. In this paper, we show that, for any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $t$, the path on $2^t p - 1$ vertices admits pretty good state transfer between vertices $a$ and $n+1-a$ for each $a$ that is a multiple of $2^{t-1}$ with respect to the quantum walk model determined by the XY-Hamiltonian. This gives the first examples of pretty good state transfer occurring between internal vertices on a path, when it does not occur between the extremal vertices.
