A new tunnel makes this dramatic drive easy enough, mates. Drive at the speed limit, no more. Avoid driving at dusk (deer) and at night (visibility). Start two hours earlier than you've planned, to access better lunches.
Check Mavericks. Then, eat lunch in the nearby Princeton harbor at Barbara's (local fish), or in Half Moon Bay at the Ritz Carlton in the moderately affordable Conservatory (the view, beach access, seascape photo opportunities, including from the world's most beautiful parking lot), or at the Three Amigos taqueria (go native), according to your interests.
Visit the unknown Harbor Seal colony (telephoto lens, super telephoto lens) and walk the adjacent beach at Cowell Beach, a state park 1/2 mile south of last stoplight out of Half Moon Bay. Parking is a 1/3 mile hike to-from the beach).
Turn left for one mile at Pescadero and briefly visit this pioneer town (photo opportunity). Eat a slice of home-made pie at Duarte's restaurant.
Have breakfast at Gail's in S.C.

Good info from a local. I would suggest SF to Cruzio allow enough time for a stop at Ano Nuevo State Park to view the elephant seals. Huge beasts. May is molting season so they look ratty, and numbers can vary a lot.
