Is this correct?

When I met the most beautiful girl whom I had ever seen.

No. It is not a complete sentence, for one thing. For another: I met the most beautiful girl I had ever seen.

Just leave out whom

(When) I met the most beautiful girl(, who) I had ever seen,...

I think that you have written an excellent adverbial clause. You now need to add it to a

main clause. Something like:

I was visiting Hawaii last year when I met the most beautiful girl whom I had ever seen.

(Congratulations on your using "whom" correctly!!!)

Yes, 'whom' is quite correct, but very unnatural, since native speakers omit it: 'the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen'.
