TL;DR
Check tide times before choosing a beach, as they can noticeably change water colour and swimming conditions. Travelers reported a good experience at Anse Lazio in fine weather, but conditions vary by time of day and weather.
Anse Lazio was reported to be especially enjoyable on a clear day, but check the tide schedule before visiting: low tide can noticeably change the shoreline and water conditions.
Water colour at Anse Lazio depends not only on the beach itself but also on weather and the time of visit. Plan for good weather and take the tide level into account for the best views.
When choosing which side of an island to stay on, consider seasonal conditions as well as the specific tide pattern at your shortlisted beaches; these were the key factors raised for selecting a base.
