Set up a tap gesture recognizer:

UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(singleTapGestureCaptured:)];
[scrollView addGestureRecognizer:singleTap];

and you will get the touches in: 

- (void)singleTapGestureCaptured:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gesture
{ 
    CGPoint touchPoint=[gesture locationInView:scrollView];
}
