When looking in the system preferences, there is no option for Safari. I can't adjust any of my location preferences on my Mac. Other apps are present, just not safari. I’ve toggled the main switch and restarted etc to no avail. Anyone else have this bug?
 
It will appear after any website in Safari asks for location permission for first time - just like most of other apps do.
 
I just teested it out and it worked.
Websites -> Location should be checked in Safari settings. If default setting ("when visiting other websites") is set to Deny then it would not work. Default for that settings is "Ask"
