You will have the chance to meet them during your trip in Rottnest Island, rent a bike and go all over the place. They are mostly in tall grass but you can see them in the village, on the beach, … Open your eyes you can’t miss them !

The quokkas are really friendly and won’t jump away from you and your camera. As they are mostly curious, they will come to you, and they will be happy to take a selfie with you.
