Meaning of the flag of Aruba

Blue stands for the sky and the sea, and yellow for the sun and abundance; the two stripes are often linked to Aruba's separate status within the Dutch kingdom. The four-pointed star represents the island, with its red soil and white beaches, and the four directions from which its people came. The flag was adopted on March 18, 1976, now celebrated as Flag Day.
