You can quickly access all of your highlights from Comments sidebar. Go to View > Annotations>Show Annotations and the Annotations pane will be displayed in the left side of the document. All of your annotations are listed in this sidebar, Click on a highlight in the list and your view will jump to the highlighted text.
A Final Point to Remember
Before saving the modified PDF file with highlighting, if you wish to turn off and remove the highlighting from the text, just go to Edit>Undo Add Annotation, or press command +Z for quickly undoing the previous changes.
But once you save the PDF file with annotation or other changes, it would
NOT be possible to undo or redo. Therefore, we do recommend that you save the changed PDF files as copy ones.
