Comments We spent the 2009 Christmas holiday on a cruise out of Baltimore on the Carnival Pride. We brought our dive gear and made arrangements with Stuart's Cove before we left home. They picked us up at the cruise ship terminal and returned us after our dives. Stuart's Cover is a large operation; however, it is well run. The staff was friendly, helpful and safety conscious. The boat was in great shape and had complete safety equipment. We dove the Bond Wrecks and the David Tucker Wreck. Both sites were interesting. The visibility was surprisingly good. We saw the largest stingray we have ever seen. Our 16 year old son, who has logged 73 dives, loved it. In summary, we were very pleased with both Stuart's Cove and the diving.
