SAF3 (pronounced "Safe"), also known by its working title Rescue 3, is a syndicated American action-drama television series following the daily challenges of the S(Sea), A(Air), and F(Fire) divisions of the Malibu Fire Department. This series consists of 20 episodes that originally ran during the 2013–14 season.

Although this series originated in the United States and is set in California, it was filmed in South African locations such as Cape Town and Camps Bay Beach.

The series received financing from Emmett/Furla Films and Envision Entertainment.[1] Gregory Bonann created the show.[2]

The Star said "the drama is a modern day Baywatch which stars a blend of local and international actors".[3] Cape Argus stated, "SAF3 is a heart-warming series, where the trials and tribulations of the key characters, married with dedication to their jobs, forms the foundation of the drama."[4]
