No, geysers require the presence of large subterranean magma chambers to power them, they are NOT confined to continents.

For instance the islands of Iceland and Newzealand both have extensive geyser fields, similar to those found in North America (Yellowstone).

However this said all continents will have locations where there are hot springs or mud flows, but not necessarily geysers.

No, geysers are not found on all continents. The majority of geysers are found in areas with geothermal activity, such as along tectonic plate boundaries, which are often concentrated in specific regions like Iceland, New Zealand, and the Yellowstone National Park in the United States.
