A cruise that will include local and national Equality Maryland supporters and staff will take place Jan. 12-19. The organizers are inviting the public to set sail for seven nights while making new friends surrounded by all-you-can-eat buffets and events.

The cruise begins at the Port of Baltimore on the Carnival Pride. The Pride boasts a full casino, Broadway style theater, resort style pools, an adults-only pool, numerous bars and lounges, a 72-foot water slide, a spa and fitness center, youth designated areas and activities and more. The vacation starts with two days at sea before making stops in Port Canaveral (Orlando), Florida and Nassau and Freeport, Bahamas before returning to Baltimore.

Prices start at $537 per person (based on double occupancy).
