If you take the 1 it'll take you 8+ hours. if you take the 5, it'll
take you 5 hours. If you're really going to make this a trip over
several days, take the 1.
Definitely the Monterey Bay Acquarium and then Cannery Row (also in
Monterey)
Big Sur is gorgeous, as is Santa Cruz. have a beer (at least) along
the way @ nepenthebigsur.com
Stop at the Hog's Breath Inn in Carmel. used to be owned by Clint,
cool place. have a Dirty Harry burger.
silly name (until you look into where it came from), but the
ticklepinkinn.com in the Carmel highlands is great, if you have the
time and $$
(William Randolph) Hearst castle in San Simeon is pretty amazing.
worth the time to do the tour. Morrow bay is also gorgeous and a good
place to stop for a meal.
If you're into wine an easy way to see the notable wineries along the
central coast/Santa Barbara is to look up the Sideways (the movie)
wine tour.. after the movie, many folks mapped out the wineries
involved. you could spend a couple days doing this and it would be
well worth it. then stop and see old town Santa Barbara; go to the
Four Seasons-Biltmore Hotel in SB for some cush accommodations and
terrific scenery.
Great drive when you have the time..

If you want to take more of a scenic route, take Hwy 1, stop off at
Monterey and check out the great aquarium they have there, the
jellyfish exhibit is amazing. Drive through Pebble Beach, wave hello
to Dirty Harry in Carmel ;)
Also, check out Hurst (sp?) Castle and Solveng, a German/Austrian
styled town... haven't been there for a while, but it's worth cruising
thru.
