I’m trying to wrap my head around this. I perceive time as though the present moment is a wave I’m riding through space and experience. Does Spacetime, as presently understood, suggest that time is more likely an ocean that exists and is “real” stretching off towards the horizons? In other words, is the present the only thing that is real as we traverse the dimension of time? Or do the distant past and future also exist, despite my inability to experience them, just as distant points in space do?

No, because simultaneously means “at the same time”. You might as well ask if two simultaneous events opposite sides of the world are happening in the same place.
Similarly, “exist” is a present tense verb. The past existed, the present exists, the future will exist.
