In fact if it has to be surrounded by an ocean then there are only two continents, Antarctica and everything else. You can cross them all without entering an ocean, only seas.
Africa being an ocean is supported by there being saltwater between it and Asia. The panama canal(s) connect freshwater lakes to bridge the gap between the Pacific and the Atlantic.
If you count the Panama Canal and squint, you can make an argument. Not so much for the above.
The panama canal is not an ocean…and man made. No amount of squinting could make it a reasonable argument to count it.

Technically no, not when using the same argument.

If the Panama Canal doesn’t count, neither does the Suez Canal, IMO.
Same thing applies to Africa and Eurasia, no?
