We're at roughly 19.3°N, 104.8°W. If you need more precision, Google Maps says that the kiosk in the Jardin is located at 19.2809013°N, 104.7879789°W: https://www.google.com/maps/@19.2809013,-104.7879789,250m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en

Here is the IR satellite loop, un-zoomed, with the Lattitude/Longitude layer turned on (note the checked box in the upper left.) I added an arrow pointing to the approximate location of La Manz. It's not exact because there is some slight error or geometric distortion between their Lat/Long lines and their mapping of the Mexican coastline. If you find 19.3/104.8 using their Lat/Long grid, you won't be quite on their coastline. And we KNOW La Manz is on the coast .


And here is a zoomed-in view (to zoom the live version of this loop, click the Zoom button in the lower right area, then click in the loop image wherever you want to be the center of your zoomed-in view. Keep clicking to zoom more.)
