I have just what you need to haul multiple kayaks on a 2018 Hyundai Accent. The first thing you will need is a roof rack and for this the best option we have is the Yakima CoreBar Crossbar System part # Y00421, part # Y28TR, and part # Y06169. The Yakima CoreBar System is a bit pricey yes but the roof rack is where I recommend you spend your money. The Yakima CoreBar System has aero shaped bars so you don't have to worry about excessive wind noise and they will work with a huge variety of rooftop mounted accessories.

Then for the kayaks, you'll need to use a j-style to fit both on the roof and for this the Swagman Contour Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style - Fixed Arms part # S65148 is a great cost effective option. You'll need to two sets for both kayaks. If you want to leave them installed (the carrier that is) then a folding option is best, the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier part # e98878.
