No, Aruba isn't in Europe. Europe is a continent that's to the northeast of Aruba. Aruba is an island in the Caribbean Sea. The continent to which it's nearest is South America.

But Aruba's culture shows European influences. The official language of the island is Dutch. That's because it's a former Dutch colony.
