Is the long drive from San Francisco to Carmel for the 17 Mile Scenic drive worth the car ride? What other activies do you suggest to do in Carmel or along the way?

I only did a little looking, but it seems like there are a ton of art galleries and art museums, beautiful beaches, biking, horseback riding, wine tasting, etc. The scenic drive seems pretty cool as well, but it is a long drive considering that you'd not only have to drive the two hours there, but back as well. What are your thoughts?
