Flag of Curaçao ![]() The flag of Curaçao is a blue field with a horizontal yellow stripe slightly below the mid-line and two white, five-pointed stars in the canton. The blue symbolizes the sea and sky (the bottom and top blue sections, respectively) divided by a yellow stroke representing the bright sun which bathes the island. The two stars represent Curaçao and Klein Curaçao, but also 'Love & Happiness'. The five points on each star symbolize the five continents from which Curaçao's people come.
