The town is located on the junction of Route 7 with Route 14, about 24 kilometres (15 mi) west of Zapicán and on the border of Florida Department. It is in close proximity to Nico Pérez, separated from it partly by Route 7 and partly by the railroad tracks. The two parts are joined by a bridge passing over the tracks.
