No, the Six Day war began after Israel discovered that Egypt and Syria were massing forces to strike Israel.

The answer you are looking for is Eilat, but the phrasing of the question makes some historical errors.
Egypt had no power to "let" or "forbid" Israel the use of its territorial ports. However, Egypt cut off international access through the Straits of Tiran, preventing Israel from effectively having Red Sea access. (This was critical since most Israeli petroleum at that point came from Iran and would arrive at Israel via the Red Sea.) The closing off the Straits of Tiran made the Israeli port city of Eilat virtually unusable. Under International Law, this bellicose Egyptian Act gave Israel a legitimate causus belli or reason to declare war.
