Well, if you're prepared to spend a bit of money, I've heard very good
things about Wingware, which is also available on Mac  (Note, not a user
myself currently, but has seen it before and been favourably impressed,
enough to suggest it here despite not currently actively using it myself.)

In terms of free/open source, there's also of course Eclipse with PyDev,
although I don't know how easily/well it integrates into the Mac ecosystem,
but suffice it to say Mac is listed as a supported platform.  I use Eclipse
with PyDev on Linux and Windows and am quite happy with it.  Links:
