There is no precise location. The main factor in the defeat of the Armada was the weather.
Although the British navy had some success in sinking some of the ships the main force was destroyed by a storm .
The spanish ships were large and dificult to sail in the narrow and shallow waters around England. When the storm blew up they had to run before it and ended up going round the top of Great Britain where many were wrecked on the Scottish Coast . Others managed to get out into the Atlantic but they were swept back against the Irish coast where they were wrecked.
