Os Amigos da Gaita are an accordion entertainment group from Estreito de Câmara de Lobos, in Madeira. The group emerged informally among local residents and, since October 2017, has been part of the Casa do Povo do Estreito de Câmara de Lobos.
The group seeks to preserve the traditional songs sung in the parish at festivals, during agricultural work and on summer pilgrimages. The repertoire includes traditional music from Madeira and Portugal, as well as despiques and desgarradas.
