On our cruise boat Casta cruises there were vegetarian ( fish) dishes . Not vegan. Wehad great fun on the boat. We did kayaking , rolled spring rolls with the chef, danced and had good fun.

Is a day cruise better than overnight one for a couple that’s vegetarian and not water babies? And are there any day cruise companies that are vegan/veg only?

I am out here now. There are trees down on the islands and the staff says the amount of trash in the water is higher than usual, but it’s not very bad. We’ve gone kayaking and swimming with no issues. All of the tours seem to be operating normally.
