56 Across · WSJ Crossword, August 25, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Busy season on la Côte d’Azur” is ETE. It appears as 56 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of August 25, 2026, a Tuesday puzzle titled “Joking Kind” by Daniel Hrynick, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 14, column 13 of the 15×15 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with E and ends with E, and contains 2 vowels and 1 consonant. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Tuesday puzzles stay approachable with light wordplay, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
