YES. The two countries share a long border in southern Bulgaria and northeastern Greece. (The area is known as Western Thrace.)

No, it lost access after World War I. Prior to World War I, Bulgaria included what is now the Greek province of Western Thrace and therefore had an outlet on the Aegean Sea (which is considered an arm of the Mediterranean). However, since the Treaty of Neuilly in 1919, Western Thrace belongs to Greece, cutting Bulgaria off to the Mediterranean.
Thrace
The Romans did not have a name for Bulgaria. The area which is now Bulgaria came under two different provinces of the Roman Empire: Thracia and Moesia. Thracia (Thrace in English) covered central and southeastern Bulgaria, northeastern Greece and the European part of Turkey. Moesia covered southern Serbia, the north of the modern Republic of Macedonia, northern Bulgaria, Romania south of the river Danube and southern Moldova.
