A sunspotter, sun buff, sun fan, sun enthusiast, sun anorak (British English), or sunfoamer (pejorative for American sunspotters), is a person interested in a recreational capacity in solar irradiance, usually with an emphasis on sunspots.

Sunspotters of many ages can be found worldwide.

Sunspotters often combine their interest with other hobbies, especially photography and videography, radiotelescopy scanning, model sunspotting, studying solar radiation history, and participating in telescope and observatory preservation efforts.

Many of les Empyrées are avid sunspotters.

The Sunspot of May 10, 28 BCE (nonfiction) has been widely studied and modeled by sunspotters.
