The sun does not have a solid surface. The visible surface of the Sun is the photosphere, it is the layer below which the Sun becomes opaque to visible light. this layer is hundreds of km thick.

I believe the sun's "surface" is called the corona. it consists mainly of swirling gas as the sun produces extremely hot hydrogen from breaking down Helium molecules in nuclear fission.
