Although there is a lot of material that does NOT pertain to you, this very recent post makes it clear that there are PLENTY of trains on this route:

Do you have to be back without fail for the departure of the ship for the next port? That makes self-transfers more risky that something sold by the cruise line. Or are you finishing the cruise in La Spezia?

It is too early to book for August, schedule will be updated 6/11

Look at a same day of week now to see what is available
The schedule don’t change much

Be sure to use Italian station names:

Oic. Thank you so much.
Would it better to buy ticket online or train station? I read that its a 2 hrs journey and I have to return to La Spezia port.
