It depends on if you want to access it from anywhere (or give others access), or if you're only accessing your server from specific devices.
Since I only ever access my server from my phone or my desktop, I use Wireguard via wg-easy. You set it up as a docker container on your server and it gives you a neat web UI (defaults to port 51821) from which to add Wireguard clients. Once connected through Wireguard, you can access your services as if you're on the server's local network.
Note, you'll of course have to open up a port for Wireguard on your router for this to work, the default being 51820.
wg-easy is fabulous! I use it too and I love it
