Aruba: a Dutch-inspired island in the sunny Caribbean

Aruba is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located in the southern part of the Caribbean Sea, about 25 kilometers off the coast of Venezuela, and is known for its tropical climate, white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. As an autonomous country, it retains Dutch citizenship, speaks Dutch and Papiamento, and tourism is the mainstay of the economy, attracting tourists for year-round sunshine, scuba diving and water sports. The island boasts unique geological wonders of natural bridges (still a landmark despite partial collapse in 2018), Dutch colonial architecture and multicultural fusion festivals such as Carnival. In addition, Aruba has become a popular tourist destination in the Caribbean due to its stable political situation, friendly environment and reputation as the "Island of Happiness".
