How do you think it related to the change in tide height that day?

I've no idea.

Our destination, Cherebourg, is a deep water port with 24 hour access to the
marina. We had all done the trip many times, so we weren't watching the
charts too closely. With hindsight, it would have been interesting to check
the depth.
