The only character I absolutely adored was Meg, especially the way she was early on. She was such a happy, goofy person, although she did make a slightly odd impression at times. She was sweet, forgiving, and a very good friend - in the beginning, even to Annie.
I did like the entire Surf Central gang - put together, they were such a charming bunch. Although, I did find Rae a little unnerving. She didn't blend that well with the others.
I didn't like Caitlin either, sorry to say. She had a rather unflattering attitude, and although the character never really acted on it, I couldn't shake the feeling that she didn't think all that much of some of the people around her.
Maria - I could never stand that one. I found her plain and uninteresting. I was never convinced by Ben's supposedly passionate love for her. With Meg, it all seemed to add up.
As for Ben, I'd have to agree. He was good looking and nice enough, but he did put Meg through an awful lot of trouble. On and off, I sorta hoped Meg and Casey would get together. They were really cute even as friends, and very, very close.
I guess the only villain I really liked was Derek - he was really cool, especially the second time around. It would have been ... interesting, at least, to see him and Meg as a couple.

I like your point of views - especially that one about Caitlin didn't concerned about other people than herself (except Cole and Trey).
I gotta agree that Maria was plain, but I didn't found her all uninteressting. She was a sweet, smart and likeable girl, but she had her moments where she were all whimpy.
Another characters I found plain were Michael and Vanessa; they were nice people, though, but uninteresting, despite I felt sorry for Vanessa, especially cause her mother was suffering from the same disease that Virginia put her through.
I kinda liked Gabi at the beginning, because she was naughty, but after she had sex with Antonio, Ricardo's brother, she became whimpy. Amy, Sean's girlfriend, was beyond annoying.
I kinda liked Tim, dr. Tyus and Eddie too. Casey's mom, Alex, was a lovable character. And Jude Kavanaugh (If I wrote his name correctly) was amusing.

I have to agree about Michael and Vanessa - they did have a boring streak. I was never that interested in them as a couple. Although, I have to admit that Vanessa started off as a rather cool, strong character, only to somewhere along the way turn into a goggly eyed, jealous romantic. I prefered her the way she used to be.
I did like Antonio, he was cute and a good guy. I always used to think him and Gabi made much more sense as a couple than her and Ricardo.
Bette's daughter Emily was a sweetheart, but I never really got to know her that well. And A.J. was such a gentleman. He was really good to Olivia when he came into the show.
But the horrid Tess - I could have ripped her to shreds any day of the week.

I agree with you about Tess, though I shall admit that I haven't seen the first episodes of Sunset Beach, so I didn't saw all the moments with Rae. But I agree that she stood a little bit out from the rest of the Surf Central gang, but she wasn't a blend character.
