Charleston is roughly 30 mins+ away. It will be in the upper 80s/nearly 90 for the next week.
Because it’s summer in the south, there’s usually a chance of rain at some point.
There’s plenty to do in Charleston imho. It’s a gorgeous city with charming shops and restaurants in the historic center. There are museums, walking tours, boat tours, carriage rides, etc. You can also find go karts and Minigolf nearby.
Kiawah is lovely. Stay oceanfront. Go to the beach. Golf. There are playgrounds and a kids club. Rent bikes and explore; there are paths completely shaded by lush green trees.
[/b]My kids are older and admittedly get bored at Kiawah, [b]but I love it.
PS - There could always be a hurricane.
Agree. My kids are teens and don’t love Kiawah for more than a few days. There’s not much around it. For little kids it’s great.

Of course Kiawah is hot and muggy in the summer. Most of the guests are southerners so they are used to it. It was too hot for us - YMMV.

I am on the fence due to weather though I would like to see those places- thoughts?
All the places mentioned are by beach towns. Perfectly fine for summer.
