Reply from Digital Ocean support on this:

While there’s not a direct way to create a tarball or zip file from the UI or using s3cmd, you can access Spaces using pretty much any software that supports S3. My initial recommendation would be CyberDuck since it’s available for Windows and MacOS.

CyberDuck actually has connection profiles and details on how to configure this quickly below:

We also have a quick-start guide for CyberDuck in our product docs:

The benefit here is that CyberDuck will allow you to access your Space(s) as if they were normal directories, similar to if you were using FTP/SFTP.
