The main one is just outside Tunisian Hazoua on the route between El-Oued and Tozeur.

For the Sahara-bound, the most common point of entry from Tunisia is Hazoua, a short ride from Nefta used by louages (shared taxi), travellers driving their own vehicle and the odd overland truck. There is no public transport between the Tunisian and Algerian border posts, but the Tunisian border police will ask someone to take you the couple of kilometres across. After formalities on the Algerian side, there should be a share taxi waiting to go to El Oued (about an hour), but it can be a long wait.
