It's easy to miss the extra white water that gives a water trap a away but if you look at the center of a water tile, you'll see what I call the "white eye" shape that's a dead give away. If it's too hard to see the white eye, look at the space between the rock in the center and the rock in the upper right corner of the tile. Traps have a white mound of water, safe tiles do not. In the image, Vras is standing right above the water trap.

EDIT: Given slayernz observations, I swapped out photos. The new one has circles highlighting the white mound and what I've called the white eye. The white mound in the upper right corner of the tile is the easiest visual cue to spot.
