А вот можете подсказать, исходя из личного опыта, сколько времени занимает участок трассы 1 от Кармела до Морро Бей (или в обратном направлении) со всеми этими остановками, фотографиями и любованиями природой?
(интересует тот участок дороги, где по одной полосе в каждую сторону).
Это зависит от ваших планов на этот участок - просто проехать часа 2-3 максимум, остановиться на ескольких очках добавьте час а если запланируете пару-тройку трэлов или отдых на Pfeifer Beach то тгда смело день полный. Вот несколько мест:
Garrapata State Park Shore 36°27'13.7"N 121°55'33.5"W - gate 8 short hike to the shore
Bixby Bridge Viewpoint -36°21’27.04″N 121°54’9.34″W. the viewing area about 1.2 miles south of the bridge.

Big Sur – Pfeifer beach
http://www.californiasbestbeaches.com/b ... aches.html The easiest way to find the turn onto Sycamore Canyon Road is to check your mileage as you pass the entrance to Pfeiffer State Park. 0.9 miles south of the park is a turnoff leading west. A yellow highway sign shows the intersection, but there is nothing else.
Partington Cove Trail: Length: 1 mile Type: Down & Back; Difficulty: Moderate; Path: Steep, good
Getting There: The Partington Cove Trail starts at a large pullout in a sweeping bend on the inland side of Highway 1. You can park on either side of the highway—on the west side there is the road down to Partington Cove with a gate at top.The pullout is just 2 miles north of the Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park turnoff, or 54.6 miles north of the Hearst Castle turnoff.

Directions to trailhead: Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park straddles Highway 1, about 36 miles south of Carmel and some 10 miles south of Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park. Turn inland into the park and proceed to the day use lot.
The hike: From the Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park lot, take the signed trail toward Overlook Trail. Along McWay Creek you’ll spot some eucalyptus, quite a botanical contrast to the redwoods growing up-creek. (During spring, ceanothus and dogwood splash color along the trail.) The path leads through a tunnel under Coast Highway One, veers right, and emerges to offer the walker grand panoramas of the Big Sur coast.
