I was also facing issues in initiating safari browser on mac machine, and below solution helped me. Everytime I was calling driver init, browser was getting opened but the URL was not getting hit. I am using Page object factory, with selenium , Java , maven and testng.

if (browserType.equals("safari")) {
            // System.setProperty("webdriver.safari.driver", workingDir +
            // "//driver//SafariDriverServer.exe");
            System.setProperty("webdriver.safari.driver",
                    "/driver/SafariDriver.safariextz");
            System.setProperty("webdriver.safari.noinstall", "true");
            DesiredCapabilities desiredCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities
                    .safari();
            SafariOptions safariOptions = new SafariOptions();
            safariOptions.setUseCleanSession(true);
            safariOptions.getUseCleanSession();
            safariOptions.setUseCleanSession(true);
            desiredCapabilities.setCapability(SafariOptions.CAPABILITY,
                    safariOptions);

            // deleteCookies();
            driver = new EventFiringWebDriver(new SafariDriver());

            ThreadDriver.set(driver);
            // driver.manage().window().setSize(new Dimension(1024, 850));
            getDriver().manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(3,
                    TimeUnit.SECONDS);
            wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
        }

The Safari WebDriver on Mac OS currently requires that you compile, sign, and install a specific WebDriver browser extension as detailed here. This requires that you sign up for a free Apple developer account and get a test key to sign the extension.

Fortunately, this method of remotely automating the Safari browser is currently undergoing a transition. With the upcoming release of Safari 10, the Webkit developers are building in native WebDriver support to the Safari browser itself. In my opinion, the easiest way to currently automate Safari is to download the Safari Technology Preview and then use the current snapshot version of Selenium to launch the WebDriver. You can find instructions on how to use Safari's new WebDriver features here.
