It’s not my estimated time, just what the average time to complete on AllTrails shows, it’s mostly just a reference for myself.

I would agree that these often take 1.5x the duration provided by AllTrails to stop and check things out, take a photo here and there, examine a plant, adjust your pack, etc. When we blow through a trail without stopping, or run the dog through one and only stop for doggy potty breaks, it tends to be accurate.
Planning to hike five miles, drive, then hike 2 miles might not be the most fun use of your visit. We have a ton of incredible, beautiful trails and I want you to be able to see and experience all of them. Plan some contingencies, like staying longer at one of the beaches instead of hopping from trail to trail. If you can get it all in, you’re going to see so much.
Best wishes for your travels.
