Travel Tips
Hi,
You have to make your plans depending on the time of day.
On weekends if you get out of San Francisco early, before 8am, you can make Santa Cruz in just over an hour by using 280 to 17 South over the hill. You will miss a lot of traffic. After 9am it can be a parking lot.
If you go during the week the morning travel is your best bet, again 280 to 17 South. In the afternoon around 2:30PM, the 17 can start to get crowded.
For a real scenic drive take Highway 1, this is a straight shot into Cruz. The drive time will very depending on, again time of day with traffic patterns. I've done it in 90 minutes.
Happy Driving. Source(s): Experience and driving the routes.
