Looks like beetles to me. Spray right before dark with Neem Oil or Spinosad and in 4 days spray again.

Laurels get something known as "shot hole disease", which is made worse by water on the leaves. The plant may be in a location where there isn't enough air circulation that will allow the leaves to dry quickly. Its a bacterial condition that can be chemically treated. I don't know what is used for it - try your local garden center, they will probably have something to treat it with.
