The reason we can only see lasers through dust or cloudy water is because our eye can only see light that enters directly into them. When a laser travels across our plane of vision the laser beam is traveling in a straight line, but when it hits the small particles of dust that light is being reflected in an infinite number of directions. A portion of those reflected light rays enter our eyes resulting in what appears to be a laser beam.
